All Eyes on Us: TEDct and VTCT Foundation Collaborate for Change

TEDct and The VTCT Foundation

We are thrilled to announce a new and exciting collaboration between the Thyroid Eye Disease Charitable Trust (TEDct) and The VTCT Foundation. This partnership aims to significantly enhance the support and resources available for individuals living with thyroid eye disease and other visible differences.

About The VTCT Foundation

The VTCT Foundation is an independent grant-making charitable foundation dedicated to improving the lives of those living with a visible difference. They achieve this mission through funding a wide range of initiatives, including basic science, clinical research, and service provision. By supporting innovative projects and cutting-edge research, The VTCT Foundation plays a crucial role in advancing the understanding and treatment of visible differences.

The Appearance Collective

A key component of The VTCT Foundation’s work is The Appearance Collective. This informal network consists of over 130 individuals from approximately 60 organisations actively engaged in the visible difference arena. The Appearance Collective’s primary goals are to foster better collaboration, reduce duplication of efforts, and increase the overall impact of their initiatives. By bringing together diverse organisations and experts, The Appearance Collective ensures a more cohesive and effective approach to supporting those with visible differences.

What This Collaboration Means for TEDct

For TEDct, this collaboration marks a significant step forward in our mission to support individuals affected by thyroid eye disease. By partnering with The VTCT Foundation, we will be able to leverage their extensive network and resources to enhance our own research, outreach, and support programmes. This partnership will enable us to provide even better care and resources for our community, ensuring that those with thyroid eye disease receive the best possible support.

Looking Ahead

We are incredibly excited about the potential of this collaboration and the positive impact it will have on our community. Together with The VTCT Foundation and The Appearance Collective, we are committed to making meaningful strides in improving the lives of those with thyroid eye disease and other visible differences.

Stay tuned for more updates and developments as we embark on this exciting journey. Watch this space for news about upcoming projects, initiatives, and events resulting from this groundbreaking collaboration.
