Harry’s Hydrocephalus Awareness Trust (Harry’s HAT) was founded in 2018, by Harry’s family and friends in response to the need they identified following Harry’s diagnosis with hydrocephalus (water on the brain).
We are the only UK charity to focus solely on paediatric hydrocephalus and its impact. Our overall aim is to make life better for children with Hydrocephalus, as well as for those who love and care for them. The charity has grown holistically based on need and input from other families who are also on the same journey.
We aim to improve the lives of children with hydrocephalus. There is currently no ‘cure’ for hydrocephalus, so whilst organisations such as ours work together long term with hope of finding a cure, our focus is on management of the condition.
We know that, for children with hydrocephalus, life can be a struggle. Although many lead very normal, happy lives, many more endure numerous brain surgeries and repeated hospital admissions.
