Who we are

Trustees, Tina, Geoff and Matthew

Microtia UK was established as a charity in 2013, and evolved from the Microtia Mingle support group on Facebook by three Mums who each have children born with microtia. Liz Jones, the founding member of the Facebook group, joined forces with Hana Thalova and Ali Daniels to create the first ever UK charity which offered support to those born by microtia atresia.

The charity was registered in 2014, and has gone on to produce a nationally recognised New Parents Guide, offered annual family information events, developed resources and supported medical and psychological research through the provision of grants. We continue to support more families every year.
