Make us your employer's charity of the year!

Published: 09 May 2016

Crohn's & Colitis UK is urging supporters to help raise vital funding and awareness of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) by asking their employers to make it their charity of the year.

Firms will often pick a charity with a connection to a staff member as part of their corporate social responsibility.

“”

By supporting our charity, employers would be joining the fight against Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. This can help raise awareness and understanding of these lesser-known but life-limiting diseases.

We have the largest IBD community on Facebook, an award-winning members’ magazine and support life-changing research to increase knowledge of the causes and best treatments for Crohn’s and Colitis. 

Santander chose us as its charity of the year in 2015 and donated over £20,000.

If you think that you can help please contact the corporate team on partnerships@crohnsandcolitis.org.uk or call 01727 734489
