New Website Design

We are currently updating the website with a whole new look!

Please bear with us whilst we make our way through each page to do the updates, and we hope you like it and find it easy to navigate!

Charity Member On TV

Philippa shares, “This is my daughter Rosie, who will be featured in a new documentary series called Face Doctors. It follows patients at Addenbrookes in Cambridge who have conditions or injuries affecting the face and they asked to film Rosie when she had her first prosthetic ear fitted.

The team were all lovely and Addenbrookes have been amazing, but the process hasn’t been quite as simple as the final edit.

I hope we have represented the microtia community well, I wanted it to be clear that we think she looks perfect with or without her new ear.

The show is on Really at 9pm on Wednesday, then Discovery Plus On Demand.”
