About Us

Aussie Clubfoot Kids is aimed at assisting and supporting parents and families of children born with Clubfoot or Congenital Talipes Equinovarus.

We offer support though our private Facebook group, which contains over 2,500 members all sharing their experiences, offering advice and support to member new and old. 

Our clubfoot kids have a long and sometimes arduous journey ahead of them and the ability to talk to others who really understand the process, the feelings and the options available is invaluable.
