Invest for Children donates £9k to Crohn's and Colitis UK

Published: 27 May 2014

We would like to say a very big thank you to Invest for Children, a not for profit international organization whose mission is to help disabled children and young adults achieve a better quality of life.

They pledged £3 for every mile that James Prior rowed across the Atlantic whilst doing his epic 3,000 mile journey from Gran Canaria to Barbados in March.

Their incredible £9,000 donation to the charity will make a huge difference to so many lives.

Thank you to both Investindustrial and Invest for Children for their phenomenal support for the charity and helping the Crewing for Crohn’s fundraising totals smash through the £100,000 target.
