Get involved
We are always in need of help and support.
Tell your story
One way you can get involved is to contribute to our member
stories. It's a chance for you to help others by providing
information about your birthmark or the journey you have been
through with your child. You can include a variety of images of the
birthmark before or after treatment. Of course, if you
are just proud of your mark and want to tell everyone why then
please click on the link below and fill in the online form.
Member story form
Provide images
To make our new website as good as we possibly can we have a
section that includes descriptions of many of the different types
of birthmarks. In this section it's really about the marks
themselves. So a close up on the birthmark is important. We need to
have some supporting information with the picture, for example the
type of birthmark, roughly how old you were or your child when it
was taken and whether it had been treated etc. It's a very quick
and easy form to fill in.
Upload your images
These stories and images will provide much needed
awareness, assurance and help in the education of those seeking to
learn more about birthmarks.
