The Limbless Association is a charity which provides free and impartial information, advice and support to people of all ages, whether they are about to have an amputation or are already living with congenital or acquired limb loss. The charity also provides support and information to carers, family members and friends.
In addition to this, the charity operates a Volunteer Visitor Network which offers free, face to face visits at home or in hospital, from an experienced amputee who can share common experiences, based on their own personal experiences, and provide practical information and suggestions on the everyday issues a new or prospective amputee may face, as well as further help, support and advice.
The Limbless Association website offers detailed information, useful contacts, further reading, healthcare suggestions and a discussion forum for members. The Limbless Association also operates the Limb Loss Legal Panel, a panel of legal experts specialising in injury and limb loss, offering free initial legal advice to any member.
The charity also has links to local User and Support Groups who meet regularly and provide a network for local amputees to meet and discuss any problems or issues they may be experiencing
