Limb Loss Limb Difference Charity Alliance Founding Members

Amputation Foundation is a unique charity, that not only assists amputees but also medical professionals in their work to give new amputees the best start, following amputation. They assist amputees with many of their support needs and providing information that will be relevant to starting a new life as an amputee which will include benefits information, legal information, prosthetic centre advice and information, education and retraining and much more. 

Blesma, The Limbless Veterans, is dedicated to assisting serving and ex-Service men and women who have lost limbs or the use of a limb, an eye or loss of sight. We support these men and women for the rest of their lives, in their communities throughout the UK.

Established in 2014 to address a lack of peer support within the amputee community, Finding Your Feet is there for families affected by limb loss or absence with over 140 activities per month and vital mental health services. FYF empowers individuals of all ages and backgrounds to regain independence, grow in confidence, create friendships and develop emotional wellbeing.

LimbPower was created in 2009 to engage amputees and individuals with limb impairments in physical activity, sport and the arts to improve quality of life and to aid lifelong rehabilitation. We aim to bridge the gap between leaving the limb centre and engagement in community activity. LimbPower is also the National Disability Sports Organisation supporting amputees and people with limb impairment/s to reach their physical potential.

REACH charity is a community-led organisation supporting children, young people and adults born with upper limb differences or who acquire upper limb differences in childhood. With 18 branches across the UK and a sister organisation in Ireland Reach volunteers are organising a meet-up somewhere nearly every other weekend!! We are proud to have 1026 members; our role is to keep them connected online and in person, provide a platform for conversation, friendship, and learning, and to support people on their terms. Our ambassadors: Melissa Johns, Claire Cashmore MBE, Briony Williams, Alex Brooker & Jay Howard, will be celebrating #LLLDAM with the Limb Loss & Limb Difference Alliance
