To support amputees and other disabled people in Malawi and Zambia in Africa. Our particular focus is the delivery and development of prosthetic and orthotic services. Prostheses are devices which replace body parts which are missing. Orthoses are supports for body parts which don't function properly. For more detailed information about what we do, go to our Projects page.
We get people moving!

In the UK, the NHS provides prostheses, orthoses and surgery, free to anyone in need. We get on with our lives. In Malawi and Zambia thousands of men, women and children lose limbs, or the use of them, due to disease, accident or poverty. Many lose their livelihoods, homes or families - some even die.  Through our One Smile giving programme you can change the outcome for one disabled person each year for 5 years. 

£60 buys an average prosthesis or orthosis.

£100 pays for an average prosthesis or orthosis or an orthopaedic or reconstructive operation to be delivered in a remote location.

The Proclaimers' famous lyrics "I would walk 500 miles" are the inspiration for the name - and the aspirational goal for the amputees 500 miles will help.
