Caring Matters Now is the UK charity supporting those affected by Congenital Melanocytic Naevi (CMN) – a genetic condition, consisting of a dark brown hairy birthmark covering up to 80% of the body. The condition can also grow internally, which in the worst cases can be fatal.
Caring Matters Now was founded in 1997 by Jodi Whitehouse, at the time a 17-year-old with extensive CMN covering her body.
Our vision:
We have a vision of a world where no one suffers from CMN.
