Supporting Charities with your Help.

We donate 1% of all income taken to charity, via the safe and approved Virtue app. Each has been carefully selected by us, and we hope that many of you are already well aware and possibly supporters of some of them. Each has a connection to health in its broadest remit, and we are pleased to be able to give a little back, with your help. To learn more about any of them please click the links provided.
