SOFT UK was founded in 1990 by Christine Rose and Jenny Robbins. As mothers, they were unfortunate enough to discover first-hand the lack of support and information available to families affected by Patau’s syndrome (Trisomy 13), Edwards’ syndrome (Trisomy 18) and related disorders.

Story

Spread the Christmas Spirit with SOFT UK

Christmas is a time for togetherness and supporting those we care about. This year, we invite you to join us in a meaningful alternative to traditional Christmas cards: make a donation to SOFT UK instead. By supporting SOFT UK, your contribution goes directly towards resources that make a tangible difference in the lives of families affected by trisomy 13 and 18.

“We’re so grateful to the SOFT UK community for their support and dedication. Your generosity allows us to keep making a difference.” – Kate, SOFT UK

Why Your Support Matters

SOFT UK offers essential support to families throughout their journey—from diagnosis and care to bereavement and TFMR support. With one-on-one assistance, specialised resources, and connections to other families, we ensure no one faces this journey alone. Our offerings include Zoom calls, face-to-face events, one to one support via our helpline and Facebook support groups, giving families a place to share and receive support. We also host Rarebinars and educational sessions for healthcare professionals.

"We are not going to send Christmas Cards this year but instead are donating money to SOFT UK in order to support the ongoing work they do for our family and many others." — SOFT UK Supporter
