World Smile Day
CLAPA is the national charity for people affected by cleft lip and palate in the United Kingdom. We support people to take control of their journey, connect with others, and use their voices to impact the future of care.
At CLAPA we believe every smile tells a story. Help us make the most of this year’s World Smile Day to celebrate and support our vital work in the UK Cleft Community.
Join us on Friday 6th October to share your story, spread the word, and#RaiseASmile!
