Jeans for Genes
WHAT IS JEANS FOR GENES?
Jeans for Genes, organised by four national charities, raises funds for research into serious and often life-threatening genetic disorders affecting thousands of children. Funds also provide laboratory equipment and facilities, as well as valuable advice and support for families.
WHY DO WE NEED TO RAISE FUNDS?
In the UK, one baby in every 33 is born with a ginetic disorder or birth defect…that’s one born every 30 minutes whose life could be affected. There are over 4,000 recognised genetic disorders, some of which have no current treatment. Pioneering research to develop such treatments is being funded through Jeans for Genes and is bringing great hope to families.
BOLTON SAILING CLUB IS SUPPORTING JEANS FOR GENES THROUGHOUT 2007.
