The cleft lip and palate network offers a comprehensive multidisciplinary service for cleft lip and cleft palate at both Addenbrooke's (the 'hub' of the network) and at local hospitals.
With these services, our aim is to reduce the travel and disruption to families eg those who don't live near to Addenbrooke's.
