Our Charities

Instead of the "biggies" - the main charities that everyone knows and donates to - we have decided to sponsor three charities that, though they do equally deserving and wonderful work as the "biggies", do not necessarily get the attention and funding they require to carry out their work.

SeeAbility
Operating name of The Royal School for the Blind. Charity #255913
SeeAbility's mission is to enable those in the UK who are visually impaired and have additional disabilities to reach their full potential.

They help put these people back to the path of leading as normal a life as possible - even though their disabilities may be severe in addition to their sight-loss challenges. Your donations of cartridges will help this vital work continue.

Cruse Bereavement Care Scotland (CBCS)
Charity #SC 031600
Cruse is a well-known network of volunteer counsellors across the United Kingdom dealing with those who have lost loved ones and are having trouble dealing with the emotion and stress that accompanies such situations.

Their newly-separated Scottish division (a separate charity) is particularly deserving and needs every penny it can get to keep up the level of service it provides to people bereaved all over Scotland.

Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY)
Charity #1050845
This charity provides services promoting the understanding of the specialist needs of young people with specific, sadly often fatal, cardiac problems, offering support, and helping contribute to vital medical research.

Though this thankfully only affects a small number of people, their work is crucial for those who are at risk, or have loved ones who are.
