Charities

The Cleft Lip and Palate Association (CLAPA) is a small charity working to improve the lives of people born with a cleft and their families in the UK. Three babies are born with a cleft every day in the UK. CLAPA is a community of families, patients and health professionals, all dedicated to raising awareness and working together to overcome any barriers caused by cleft lip and palate. Our vision is of a society where everyone affected by cleft feels supported, connected and empowered to take control wherever they are on their cleft journey.

The Clement James Centre is an award winning charity that empowers the community to release its potential in one of London’s most disadvantaged areas.

We build teacher capacity through innovative, digital, high-impact training that enriches both their lives and those of the children they teach.
