It’s OA/TOF Awareness Week!

This week is OA/TOF Awareness Week – a crucial opportunity to raise awareness about Oesophageal Atresia (OA) and Tracheo-Oesophageal Fistula (TOF).

Did you know a baby is born with Oesophageal Atresia and Tracheo-Oesophageal Fistula (OA/TOF) in the UK roughly every other day? That’s around 180 babies a year, facing a condition with lifelong implications.

OA/TOF is more common than many people realise, yet awareness of its impact is often lacking.

Let’s change that!

Here’s how you can get involved and help make a difference:

  • Share the Message
  • Share Your Story
  • Make a Donation
  • Fundraise for TOFS

Our vision is a world where individuals born with OA/TOF can live life unlimited.

By getting involved in OA/TOF Awareness Week, you can contribute to making this vision a reality.
