June 2025 Update: Hanoi Mission Success

In June 2025, the Northern Cleft Foundation team returned to Hanoi for another highly successful cleft mission in partnership with the Hanoi Medical University Hospital.

Over the course of the week, our team of surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses, and speech therapists worked closely with local colleagues to provide free cleft lip and palate surgery for babies and children. We also delivered dedicated speech therapy training and support, helping to improve long-term outcomes for patients and build local capacity for ongoing care.

This visit marked our second collaboration with Hanoi Medical University Hospital and strengthened the relationships formed during our initial visit in 2023. We were especially proud to support shared operating lists and training sessions, with local staff actively involved in every aspect of care.

🎥 You can see some highlights from the visit on our Facebook page, including a short video produced by the hospital.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support this work – together, we are changing lives and creating brighter futures.
