The Scar Free Christmas Appeal: a very big thank you!
Wow, we're so lucky to have supporters like you.
An enormous thank you to everyone who took part in double donations for the first week of our Christmas Appeal.
You raised a colossal £71,219, including Gift Aid!
We’re absolutely thrilled that our incredible Scar Free community came together to raise such a huge amount – in only one week!
Your generosity makes a big difference: it allows researchers and facilities to accelerate investigations that are transforming the prevention and treatment of scarring, as well as getting treatments to those in most need.
Whether your donation goes towards helping to fund PhDs or electives, 3D bioprinting ears and noses, supporting The Cleft Collective, improving the lives of conflict-related sexual violence survivors, or enabling nation-wide burns resources, you are creating steps towards a scar free future.
For every £1 you donated, 85p goes straight to our world-class research partners at institutions like the University of Birmingham, Swansea University, and the University of Bristol. The remaining 15p is invested in raising vital funds and awareness.
If you missed out on match funding, there’s still time to donate. Our non-match funded Christmas Appeal will run until 10th January 2025 – so you can still give the gift of life-changing research this Christmas.
From all of us at The Scar Free Foundation – thank you!
