Salamanders Young Burn Survivors is proud to have received these compliments

You have a very impressive site. I now know the difference between a burn victim and a burn survivor, a valuable lesson.

This is a great cause.

This is an excellent site to teach children and adults about the horrors of playing with fire. The site is informative and helpful for parents and young people. Some parents may object to the subject matter of this site, but we believe that it handles the topics in a responsible and educational manner.

Just had a look at your web page. I think it's really good and I like the idea of all the info and I really got a lot of info off the story of Quinn's accident. I almost could feel the pain. I think he is really brave to be able to walk round and handle all the names he has been called. I don't think I could do that. I would of just have stayed in for the rest of my life and never shown my face out in the streets again. I also think Paul is very brave. I can understand now why friendship is so important sometimes... Sometimes more than you think, because you never know what could happen.

Although I was surfing the net looking for information and resources for the burns course that I am currently studying I was really pleased to come across a site dedicated to young burns survivors. I really wish there had been such resources when I was growing up. I am now in my late twenties and was burnt 25 years ago when I was 3. I trained as a nurse to specifically work in burns as a way of putting back a little of the care that I received as a patient. The site has been both informative from a professional point of view but it has also helped me on a personal level. I have a child of my own and a fantastic partner who has never made an issue of my scarring! I no longer think why me? Because it doesn't matter the important thing is I survived and have gone on to lead a fulfilling and successful life. It took me a long time to learn how to just be me and that I did not need to be perfect in every way as a way of making up for not being physically perfect. It is a marvellous site. Keep up the good work.

I'm a student nurse and have had experience nursing people with traumatic burns. This website may help people to understand about burns and speak to real people who are going through or have been through similar experiences.
~ Jamie

Thanks for putting such a informative and supportive site together... I wish I had been able to find it last year when we were new to this.
~ Vicki Knopf [Vicki Knopf is the mother of a young burn survivor.]

Your website is a public service that fills an important gap, and it's very professional-looking too.
