A Buckinghamshire-based epilepsy charity has today launched a bid to cash in on the text message craze by offering people the chance to donate via their mobile phones.

The new 'Thumbs Up' service has been created by the National Society for Epilepsy (NSE) to enable mobile phone users to put their texting thumb to good use and donate to the charity by sms text message quickly, simply and securely.

Money donated via text will go directly to helping almost half a million people in the UK who are living with epilepsy."
