About us

Caring Matters Now is the only UK charity supporting children and adults affected by Congenital Melanocytic Naevi (CMN) - a genetic condition, consisting of dark brown hairy birthmarks covering up to 80% of the body. The condition has many expressions, some of which can lead to medical complexities. CMN can also grow internally, which in the worst cases can be fatal. 

Our vision:

We have a vision of a world where no one suffers with CMN. 

Our 3 main aims are:

• To support those affected by CMN
• To fund pioneering research to develop effective treatements of CMN
• To raise global awareness of CMN
