2024 Christmas Appeal - Andy's Story

Organised by Finding Your Feet

Christmas brings with it both a tough time for the amputees we support and a strain on the money we receive. With mental health services and tackling isolation more important than ever, the limb loss community needs your help.

We provide a wide range of support to individuals who have been affected by amputation or limb difference, through sporting initiatives and social inclusion projects.

Story

“After I had my leg amputated, the negative thoughts started about two months later ... I just burst out crying. And that was when I knew I needed help. Thank god Finding Your Feet are here, because I don’t think I would be here if it wasn’t for them.” Andy

As the only amputee charity in Scotland supporting those who have lost limbs through cancer, diabetes, sepsis, addiction, road accidents and more, our service has become vital to people of all ages and backgrounds.

Christmas represents a time of joy for many, but for us - with grants and fundraising slowing down - it's always a push to keep delivering support to amputees. The season also sees a lot of people we work with struggling with loneliness and stress, meaning we have to double our efforts.

In short, we need your help. If you can make a donation or simply share the video below, you'll be helping amputees throughout the country.

We're also running a raffle, auction and Christmas Jumper Day which you can find out more about here.
