The Katie Piper Foundation exists to “make it easier to live with burns and scars”. We provide a range of services to adult burns survivors that aim to improve their mental and physical wellbeing, enabling them to reach their own goals in order to live a fulfilling life.
We were established 10 years ago after our Founder, Katie Piper, suffered significant burns as the result of an acid attack. After Katie's acute care, she traveled to France to receive care from Center Ster.
Katie wished to ensure that other burns survivors were able to receive equivalent standards of care in the UK, and the Foundation was born. This year we formally opened the UK's first residential, holistic Rehabilitation Centre for burns survivors.
We're so grateful to everyone who chooses to fundraise for us. Every penny we receive is invested in "making it easier to live with burns and scars". We hope to make it as easy and as enjoyable as possible! We promise to support our runners with:
