On 15th My 2012 we launched a campaign requesting Government Funding for research into the cause of CDH. We require 100,000 signatures by this time next year to get this request before the House Of Commons; this is a big call and a lot of signatures. Can we do this? We are certainly going to try!! This will also raise tons of awareness. Please share this epetition on facebook, twitter and as many other social networking sites as you can. You can also email it to people to sign. To find out more about our epetition and to sign it please click on the link - Let's all try make a difference!

Here at CDH UK we know how important it is to find the cause (or causes), prevention and improved treatment and management of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia and is one of the main aims and objectives of our charity.

Research and study in most cases can cost many hundreds of thousands of pounds and it is therefore extremely important for us to build on our Research Fund so that we are able to contribute to the studies/research programmes that we feel are worthwhile.

Our current research fund stands at just over £20,000 and our target is to reach at least £100,000. This is currently made up from funds raised from our annual charity ball and from donations and fundraisers where it has been specifically requested that funds are used for this purpose.

If you are a researcher and would like to talk to us regarding funding for study or research relating to CDH please email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
