Online Shop
Together with buy.at we have launched a webshop. You can choose from over 80 retailers and by purchasing through our webshop the Association receives commission on the purchase.
You pay exactly the same price as if you’d gone directly – so there’s no excuse!
In the shop you will find many retailers you know including Comet, BT, M&S and John Lewis. Thinking about getting Sky TV? If you sign up via our webshop, you will be helping the Association. Have a look through the A-Z to see all the available retailers.

The Great North Run – Newcastle
We were saddened to hear about the loss of Stacey-Louise who died due to congenital heart disease on 15th August 2005. Friends and family of Stacey-Louise decided to take part in the Great North Run to raise money for LGI, where she was treated, and for our Association through Justgiving. Over £400 pounds was raised, for which we are extremely grateful.
The finish times were: Barry – 2hrs 36m 27s; Kevin – 2hrs 29m 18s; Martin – 3hrs 21m 30s (injury at 6 mile marker).
