Hugh Thacker is raising money for Crohn’s & Colitis UK
“Hugh Thacker's fundraising”

on 30 October 2009

Donations cannot currently be made to this page
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

Thanks for taking the time to come and look at my JustGiving page for NACC donations. Unfortunately the government have in their wisdom made it so that the Gift Aid declaration each person makes when they donate on JustGiving can only apply to one charity. I therefore have another page for CICRA donations.

Sorry to make it more complicated, however if you would like to pledge just to NACC then use this page but if you would like the donation to go to both of these well deserved charities (and I hope you do) then please could you split your pledge between them. Thanks and sorry for the inconvienience.

 

Now then, those of you who have been directed here from my website know all about what I am doing and why I am doing it (although when it's 6 degree's C and I'm about to plunge into the Thames in the dark at 6 am I do question my own sanity).

Those of you who have come straight here, please take a look on www.hughsbigswim.com and you'll be able to find out all about my swim.

On behalf of the charities, I can't thank you enough for your support. Along with raising much needed money for research, treatment and of course support to sufferers, we are hoping to raise the profile of Crohn's and Colitis to help people like my niece Holly.

Wish me luck.

Hugh xx
