Information Leaflets Update
Posted on October 11th, 2009
We have recently secured funding from the Lotto that will part pay for the reprint of our 10 leaflet series. We are reviewing the series during the month of October and would appreciate feedback from you.
Send your comments to info@cleft.ie.
We are also working on producing supplemental leaflet that will address specific procedures that occur later in treatment e.g Braces, Bone Graft. This will be a slower process as we will need to work on content, ensure quality and accuracy with our medical colleagues and of course go to print. If you would be interested in contributing to this process please contact us by e-mail.
Many thanks,
Georgina Wade
