My nephew has been diagnosed with brachycephaly.

It has been recommended that he wears a specially designed helmet that will help improve the shape of a his skull as he grows.

These devices apply pressure to "bulging" parts of the skull and relieve pressure from other parts, potentially allowing growth in the flatter areas.

Treatment has to start within the next couple of months as it needs to be treated when the child's skull is still soft, usually at around 5 or 6 months old, and the device is worn almost continuously (up to 23 hours a day) for several months.

Unfortunately this treatment isn’t covered currently by the NHS and costs £2225 to complete.

Any help towards the cost of his treatment would be greatly appreciated.
