Story

Cooper would like to raise £100 to pay for 20 bottles for newborns!

When Cooper was born he didn’t have a nostril on the left side with a gap through his lip, soft and hard palate. He couldn’t latch or feed through “normal bottles” instead we used specialist soft bottles to squeeze milk into his mouth for him to swallow. These bottles are really difficult to get hold of but CLAPA provide new families with welcome packs including 2 bottles for free . Cooper would like to fund these bottles for 10 newborn families 🩵

The Cleft Lip and Palate Association (CLAPA) is the UK’s cleft lip and palate support charity. The charity brings together people affected by cleft to help them connect with others who share their experiences, welcoming them into a supportive community for life.

CLAPA’s purpose is to make sure no one affected by cleft in the UK goes through their journey alone.

CLAPA’s work to support children, adults and families affected by cleft in the UK relies on the generosity of donors. This Cleft Lip and Palate Awareness Week, want to combine awareness-raising with fundraising ......
