From the 16th – 20th September 2019 Genetic Disorders UK are holding their ‘Jeans for Genes Day’ fundraising campaign! If you and your little one are taking part or you’re just here because you adore a bit of denim, enjoy these super cute Baby Denim top picks and find out more about Jeans for Genes Day.
Jeans for Genes Day is the annual fundraising campaign for Genetic Disorders UK, the national charity that supports individuals and families affected by a genetic disorder.
Monies raised on Jeans for Genes Day fund the work of the charity and provide grants to organisations for projects that aim to transform the lives of children with genetic disorders.
