“I’m lucky to have recovered from the onset of my facial palsy. Lots of people are not so lucky. They face a lifetime of dealing with a condition that can take a real toll on confidence, relationships and self esteem. I’m proud to support Facial Palsy UK. Their work to raise awareness, among both the public and the medical profession, is vital. And their website is a lifeline. Onset is often sudden and distressing and I know, from personal experience, that good quality information can make a real difference.”
