🔷 Is your company deciding on a charity of the year for 2024? 🔷 We would be so grateful if you would consider Lyme Disease UK, as you could make a big difference to our small charity! 🌟 Lyme disease is a bacterial infection predominantly caused by the bite of an infected tick. We aim to prevent more people from being bitten and help acute cases to be treated promptly. Lyme disease can be a debilitating condition, and we also provide support to late-stage patients. 🕷 Fundraising for us allows us to run an annual awareness campaign, attend events and medical conferences, and develop important resources for patients and clinicians. ✔ Read about the benefits fundraising could bring to your company, as well as our ideas for corporate fundraising activities. ⬇ https://lnkd.in/eeCYUeQM #lymedisease #corporatefundraising #charityfundraising #charity #charityoftheyear #givingtuesday #charitysupport #patient

It brings me great joy to launch our 'A Little Pitta Love' campaign in support of Coeliac Awareness Month. 💜 Sadly there are a lot of misconceptions still about coeliac disease, hence why Coeliac Awareness Month is hugely important for raising awareness and educating people that coeliac disease is a serious autoimmune condition and not an allergy. When someone with coeliac disease eats gluten, their body attacks its own tissues and causes gut damage. 1 in 100 people in the UK have coeliac disease, yet alarmingly only 36% of people have a medical diagnosis. Our campaign aims to raise awareness and support the work that Coeliac UK is doing to reach the estimated 500,000 people in the UK who might be living with debilitating symptoms and seeking answers. Our goal is to raise £26,000 for Coeliac UK by donating 20p from every limited edition purple pack of stone baked pittas sold across major UK retailers in the month of May. #spreadalittlepittalove #coeliacawarenessmonth

Today is Global MND Awareness Day, a day where we acknowledge the impact Motor Neurone Disease has had on people around the world, raise awareness and remember those who have died of the disease. What is MND? "With MND, messages from the motor neurones gradually stop reaching the muscles. This leads the muscles to weaken, stiffen and waste, which can affect how you walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe. Some people also get changes to their thinking and behaviour, but the disease affects everyone differently. Not all symptoms will affect everyone, or in the same order. Symptoms also progress at varying speeds, which makes the course of the disease difficult to predict. MND is life-shortening and there is no cure. Although the disease will progress, symptoms can be managed to help achieve the best possible quality of life." (Source: https://lnkd.in/e88z8MuZ) Our charity partner, Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Association, focuses on improving access to care, research and campaigning for those people living with or affected by MND in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Bestway Healthcare has engaged in a number of fundraising activities to generate charitable donations to the MND Association, and we also use Pennies to enable customers to make microdonations at our tills. Currently, katie jacob (Chief Financial Officer) is training for her epic Outer Hebrides challenge. Let’s get behind Katie as she puts herself through the paces to raise as much money as possible for this invaluable cause.
