Week 4 - Crohn's and Colitis UK

OK, a bit of a cheat this week.  My £5 donation has a possible bonus for me but it's still a full fiver to charity so I'm happy it counts!  My favourite band Marillion are doing a raffle to win a huge poster that was displayed at their recent Weekend in Port Zelande in the Netherlands.  They have chosen Crohn's and Colitis UK as their charity for this particular competition.  This charity helps people with inflammatory bowel diseases live a better quality of life along with raising awareness of the conditions and funding research to ultimately find a cure.

Marillion are a rock band who are an inspiration to their thousands of devoted fans around the world.  They produce thoughtful and emotional music; sometimes dark and brooding, sometimes uplifting and joyous; sometimes deeply personal to lyricist Steve Hogarth, sometimes detailing personal stories such as that of ocean rower Don Allum or speed record breaker Donald Campbell and sometimes dealing with global issues such as the situation in Gaza.  They have raised thousands of pounds for various charities throughout the years, running raffles at their biennial Weekends.
