This year’s Jeans for Genes Day takes place on Friday 5th October, and some famous faces have pledged their support.

A beautifully simple idea, the Day invites people to leave their suits and uniforms at home and wear their jeans to work or school in return for a donation.

Jeans for Genes Day provides vital funding for the care and support of children with genetic disorders. In 2012, 23 charities will benefit from the funds raised on Jeans for Genes Day.

Celebrity supporters this year include Amanda Holden, Katie Price, Coleen Rooney, Michelle Keegan, Lauren Pope, Jessica and Carol Wright, Caggie Dunlop and Jade Thompson.

The target for this year’s Jeans for Genes Day is £2.5million. To order a free fundraising pack go to www.jeansforgenesday.org or call freephone 0800 980 4800.
