Cheers to you all. We are now a charity!
HUGE news in the battle for greater endometriosis awareness – we have been granted official charitable status.
Our new Charity Commission number means we are able to claim tax relief on the kind donations given us. It also ensures that all we do is covered by charity law, so the faith that you have shown in our work, is now clear for everyone to see.
Attaining official status is rightly, a challenge. But the valiant volunteers that set up Endometriosis Awareness North, have done all that is required to make us a trusted British charity.
Monies raised from our work will go to helping endo warriors and their families with the daily grind of physical and mental health issues. What is given will also be allocated to speeding up diagnosis – and stopping the decade-long wait experienced by some sufferers. We hope also that we can make some kind of contribution to finding a cure.
More details on what the news means to us, shortly.
There will also be new and easier ways to donate on this site, shortly.
Our charity number will be visible online – it is 1212676.
And finally, as we reach this new and exciting chapter in our history, a huge thanks to everyone who has made Endometriosis Awareness North a CHARITY!
