Reach was formed in 1978 by parents of children who were missing part of their arm or a hand, in order to lobby for the provision of a new artificial arm under the NHS.
Since then Reach has grown to become a national organisation providing support and advice for children with hand or arm deficiencies, and their parents.
 

Reach offers:

• local branches which provide support and an opportunity for children and parents to meet
• national office providing advice and support
• quarterly newsletter 'Within Reach'
• insurance cover for the child's 'good' arm

(covers UK residents from age 2 as long as they are Reach members)

• hire scheme for one-handed recorders

Beyond Boundaries Live is an event designed with YOU in mind. It brings something completely new to the table, providing a totally interactive experience. Offering visitors the chance to get involved in a whole host of different activities. The show is all about opportunity, about not taking second best and living your life to the full. Central to the show is a 'can do' attitude and not viewing disability as an inability but as a challenge to overcome boundaries.

Why not pay a visit to the show and raise funds for Reach too. For more information click here
