Story

Three babies are born with a cleft every day in the UK and we urgently need your help to keep supplying free welcome packs and feeding bottles to new families who are in need of our support.

We want to continue being there for families, young people and adults but without NHS or government funding to fall back on, things are looking dire. We have until the end of this year to turn things around before we look at making serious cuts to our vital services.

We are asking for the community to come together to #SaveCLAPA by giving as much as you can as it will make a tremendous difference or share our emergency appeal.

More information about our #SaveCLAPA emergency campaign can be found on our website. https://www.clapa.com/saveclapa/

Thank you for your support.
