Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Sadly, my father passed away on the 30th of April, aged 81, from COVID.  

For the last five years of his life, he was a single, then a double amputee but that never stopped him from living as best a life as possible.  Confined to a wheelchair, daily routines could be isolating, mundane and mentally tough but he took it with grace, bravery and humility.  My Dad was giver all his life and as a family, and on his behalf, we'd like to leave a legacy for others who are in a similar situation and therefore have setup this fundraising page.  

Finding Your Feet supports families affected by amputation or limb absence through a range of sporting initiatives and social inclusion projects designed to positively affect both physical and mental wellbeing. Isolation is a huge problem for many amputees. It has been proven that quality of life and even life expectancy is greatly reduced without social inclusion, with as many as 30% of vascular amputees not surviving to one-year post amputation. FYF is key in addressing this issue. We are directly saving lives.

We have set a stretched fund raising goal but with many family, friends and work colleagues all over the world, we really want to make this a lasting legacy.  Thanks for any donation you can make.
