Story
Jeans for Genes week returns in 2024 between the 16-22 September.
Having created the Jeans for Genes campaign nearly 30 years ago, the CGD Society is pleased to be taking back the reins, with our objective to raise much needed funds for the genetic disorders community.
Jeans for Genes week is the UK’s only fund and awareness raising week for ALL genetic conditions in the UK. Over 3.5 million people are living with a genetic condition, affecting 1 in 10 families. 75% of rare diseases affect children.
We fund small, community groups across the UK who don’t tend to get access to traditional fundi
ng. We fund specialised equipment, nursing services, respite for carers, helplines – whatever is needed!
To help this charity Staff at Woolton high are wearing jeans on the last day of the term to help raise money for charity.
Thank you for all your donations.
