Friends of the CFC Nepal is helping to shape the development of the Craniofacial centre in Nepal by raising awareness and developing relationships with those who would like to make a difference. The centre not only saves lives and provides support throughout a hugely traumatic experience both emotionally and psychologically, but the work also influences health equity in the community and helps to create more opportunity for people to participate in society, enjoy employment and pursue education.

The Craniofacial Centre was the brainchild of Prof. Dr Sunil Sah who is a consultant oral and maxillofacial surgeon at Pinderfields Hospital in Yorkshire. He launched the centre in 2017 because he and his colleagues realised that there was very little teaching, training and research being conducted into the treatment of facial and craniofacial diseases such as cleft lip, oral cancer, and facial injuries and that such everyday problems could be prevented.
