We’re the UK’s leading charity for Crohn’s and Colitis. Right now, over 500,000 people in the UK are living with a lifelong disease that many people have never heard of. We’re working to improve diagnosis and treatment; to fund research and to raise awareness.

Story

Hi every-body!

     

Thanks for visiting the sponsorship page - all money from this page will go to the charity NACC - they help people with crohn's disease like my sis.  We’re going to be doing a mammoth 1,500 miles (and that’s only one way) in a banger worth only a hundred quid, so any support would be very much appreciated!  Plus, this charity is very close to my heart, i've got 2 close friends with crohn’s (one being my little sister) and its really unpleasant.

     

The justgiving site can claim "gift aid" back on any money you sponsor us, so if you'd like to sponsor us 1p per mile you'll only have to actually spend as little as £11.72 - gift-aid adds an extra 28% free of charge if you tick it!  Of course you COULD sponsor us 2p per mile if you wanted (a mere £23.44)... or a penny per 2 miles (£5.86) if you prefer.

     

Oh, and as an added incentive, i'll write everyone’s name who sponsors us on the car before we depart, so you're name will be behind us (haha literally) all the way!!  Also, keep your eyes on our site, as we'll update it with progress on the car and the journey.

    

Many thanks, guys... we really appreciate your generosity and support,

    

Colin (and co-driver)
