Ambassador India Gale survived 40% burns to her body after her dress caught fire when she was just three years old. Our scientists and researchers are working to investigate the accuracy of burn injury treatments, and working to identify genes that affect scarring 🔬

This is Arthur. At 2 years and 9 months old, he was severly injured in his family home when a hot pot of coffee spilled over his body. Read his story here: ow.ly/rsyV50JqqOs #beburnsaware #childsafetyweek
