Raising money for

The Limbless Association

Charity Registration No. 803533

Limbless Association is a national charity for individuals with limb loss, their family and their carers. We aim to help these individuals through their own talents and initiatives to become active members of their communities. LA enables amputees achieve rehabilitation and sustain independence at home, employment and in the community. LA is the only charity for individuals with limb loss of all ages and backgrounds. We run many programs that are unique to our organisation such as a national helpline devoted to amputee issues; our Football+ Project run in conjunction with Chelsea FC Football in the Community, and our Outreach Program, which co-ordinates our prominent Volunteer Visitors Network. This Network consists members who, using their experience as amputees, support people awaiting amputation or amputees experiencing difficulties since their operation. Limbless Association also played a key role in assisting victims who sustained limb-loss during the 7/7 London terrorist attacks.

My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Two years ago our friend Sarah was involved in a horrendous bus accident in which she tragically lost her mother, suffered serious leg injuries herself, and in which her 2 year old daughter Pollyanna very sadly lost a leg. Pollyanna and our eldest son were in the same anti-natal class.

The story was covered by her husband in the Daily Telegraph.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/5258671/Humbled-by-your-kindness.html

Thoughts of Sarah's and Pollyanna's continuing daily battles will motivate us to complete the race. We will be raising money for Sarah's chosen charity the Limbless Association for which Sarah has been raising money for research into new limbs, and also for children and adults in developing countries who don't have the same access for new legs like Pollyanna. The money also funds the Association in its work helping amputees to come to terms with their loss.

That horrific day is poignant to us as our second baby was born that day.

If you are able to give anything then it would be gratefully appreciated.

Thank you.

Catherine and Mike
