#clapa
I’ve been a proud Patron of CLAPA for over 20 years.

My brother was born with a bilateral cleft lip and palate, and I saw first-hand how important it is for families affected by cleft to have the kind of support that @clapacommunity provides.

She's out of surgery and recovery. Operation went well, and she's OK for pain and comfort. Now 2 months of recovery.

Thanks for the well wishes, all. Niamh has appreciated them.

The last time there's a picture of us before her surgery tomorrow. This cleft lip and palate journey is twenty years down the line, with a shorter journey ahead of us as a family.

I remember tears after her lip repair. Tomorrow will be just as emotional.

This week, I’m supporting their Big Give Christmas Challenge where all donations made are DOUBLED at no extra cost to you. That means your £10 donation will turn into £20 for CLAPA to spend on supporting families, young people and adults affected by cleft lip and palate in the UK.

"We loved that there was a charity like CLAPA so close to our journey."

This week's Fundraising Friday shoutout goes to Jake and Elly, who completed the Two Castles 10k Run this summer in aid of CLAPA, raising £1,200 👏

Hahaha. La meva germana té una amiga que, quan el seu home es clapa al sofà, el desperta dient-li que han trucat a la porta.
