WILL You Make a Difference?

Search this Site

 

Gifts in Wills make a huge difference to our ability to support people who are affected by Crohn's and Colitis, and to fund vital research.

Providing for any family and friends is naturally your first priority when making a Will. If you decide that, after providing for them, you can also benefit our work then be assured that any gift - large or small - will help us to make a big difference to people's lives.

-Nicola's story - Too ill to work after her fifth operation, Nicola was washing sheets by hand several times each week because sores around her colostomy bag were causing leaks. When she received a grant for a washing machine she cried with relief.

-Julie's story - Julie called our helpline because she was at her ‘wit's end' over her son's Crohn's. ‘If you were nearer I would hug you,' she said, after receiving the information and support she needed. ‘Thank you, thank you, thank you!'

-Kathleen's story - When Kathleen spoke to one of our trained helpline staff she was so depressed that she was considering suicide. ‘I am feeling more positive now,' she said later. ‘I feel I owe my life to the lady.'

Nicola, Julie and Kathleen are just three of the thousands of people we support every year. With your help we can go on supporting people like them in the future.

As well as helping to provide practical support through our helplines, information, local community groups and personal grant scheme, your gift could help us to:

-raise awareness of the needs and difficulties of people affected by these conditions.

-campaign for better healthcare.

-fund research
