We bring together people affected by cleft to help them connect with others who share their experiences, welcoming them into a supportive community for life.

We have a small office in Bethnal Green, London, but our staff are based around the UK.

Our Vision 

No-one affected by cleft lip and palate in the United Kingdom will go through their journey alone. 

Our Purpose

CLAPA is the national charity for the 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.
