Cloth Doll Restoration recommendation

Hi,
can anyone recommend a really good doll restorer/dolls hospital anywhere? We are London based but willing to travel/post if necessary.

It's for 2 soft bodied dolls with material faces over a molded head. They're not in terrible condition, just well loved -although probably both need new face material as that's where most of the wear is.

many thanks!

There's a doll hospital on Smithdown Road in Liverpool

Try the Young V&A, Childhood Museum in Bethnal Green.

They will be able to point you in the right direction.

Thanks both!

That's a good point re the museum. They're actually quite rare dolls - I discovered while trying to find out if they still existed - so it that's a good shout. The museum actually have a couple of other bits by the same toymaker.
