The Limbless Association
We are a national charity supporting lives beyond limb loss. We believe No Amputee Need Cope Alone.
As the Largest Civilian Limb Loss Charity in the UK, established in 1983, we have been working with amputees and sector professionals for over 39 years. We offer information, advice and support for amputees, their family and friends and professionals.
Through our Volunteer Visitor Network, events, resources and our helpdesk we strive to ensure no amputee need cope alone.
`` A problem shared really is a problem halved ``
