Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Our beautiful grandson James was born in February with an extremely rare chromosome disorder.  We don't know what the future holds for James and his development, but we have been supported from the point of diagnosis by the charity Unique.  This charity, which commissions research into chromosome disorders, exists in order to answer questions, provide information and give valuable support to families who are affected by these diagnoses.  

Unique is funded almost entirely by voluntary donations and receives no government assistance.  Your support can make a real difference to the lives of those coming to terms with the fact their child has a rare and complex condition.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

About the charity

Unique provides much needed help and information to those caring for a family member with a rare chromosome or single gene disorder. These are lifelong conditions affecting at least 1 in 200 babies, causing disability and medical issues. For more information see www.rarechromo.org
