About us
Who we are
Jeans for Genes is a dynamic, fresh and exciting organisation that aims to provide understanding and support for the genetic condition community by raising awareness and providing essential grants to small charities and emerging patient groups who are focused on changing the lives of individuals and the 10% of families living with genetic conditions.
Our approach is human, we appreciate the strengths and achievements, as well as the challenges that families and individuals face, and work collaboratively so that the individual charities achieve their own goals.
Beyond this, by deploying a collective voice, with a ‘can do’ attitude, and working to educate and inform schools, organisations and individuals, Jeans for Genes is driving society-wide awareness of the challenges of genetic conditions and the need for support and inclusion.
Through our annual Jeans for Genes fundraising campaign with the public, schools and businesses, we raise vital funding and provide essential grants for Genetic Condition charities so individuals and families can feel supported, valued and included.
