Renowned UK fundraising appeal, Jeans for Genes Day are celebrating their 2013 success
with a huge celebrity and press event at The Jewel Bar, London on Tuesday 3rd September 2013.
2013 has been one of the best years yet for Jeans for Genes Day unveiling their new
celebrity campaign supporters which include Melanie C, Michelle Keegan, Louise
Thompson, Lauren Goodger, Amy Childs, Tallia Storm, and Sophia Sassoon to name a
few.
Jeans for Genes Day raises money for Genetic Disorders UK and aims to change the world
for children with genetic disorders. Genetic disorders affect 1 in 25 children born in the
UK – that’s more than 30,000 babies each year. Their associated health problems mean
that genetic disorders are the biggest cause of death of children aged 14 years and under.
Taking place this year on Friday 20th September 2013, Jeans for Genes Day is the well-
known annual fundraising event which simply asks the British public, children and adults
alike to wear their jeans for the day and make a £1 / £2 donation. Jeans for Genes Day
funds the care and support of children with genetic disorders through its grant
programme. In 2013, 21 charities will benefit from the funds raised on Jeans for Genes
Day.
Jeans for Genes Day have been lucky enough to be supported by some of the UK’s most
famous celebrity faces over the years including Robbie Williams, Amanda Holden, Kelly
Osbourne, Katie Price, Coleen Rooney, Stacey Solomon and Christine Bleakley to name just
a few!
