We help children & adults born with TOF/OA to ease living with this rare condition

Story

We provide support for those born unable to swallow, due to the rare congenital conditions Tracheo-Oesophageal Fistula (TOF), Oesophageal Atresia (OA) and associated conditions. TOF/OA affect one in every 3,500 babies, and can only be repaired, not cured. When new parents hear the devastating news that their precious newborn baby has TOF/OA, we want to be there for them. From that first moment, to living with the condition as adults, we offer vital support and friendship along the way. Thank you so much for helping us to support our members.

Linear Recruitment's Elliot Birtwistle has a child affected by this condition, and we really want to help to raise as much as possible for the charity who has provided him with support over the years.

TOFS offers support to people born with Tracheo-Oesophageal Fistula (TOF) and/or Oesophageal Atresia (OA). These are rare congenital malformaltions of the gullet and windpipe. Immediate neonatal surgery is a treatment, not a complete cure. We are UK-based and receive no public-sector support at all.
