Helping You Thrive, Not Just Survive

Connecting You to the Right Support

The Amputation Foundation is dedicated to offering unparalleled support and guidance as you adapt to life after amputation. Our innovative approach ensures you receive the crucial advice and information necessary for your journey ahead.

Limb loss can have profound effects on your social and working life. We'll help you navigate your legal rights and guide you towards the care and compensation that make managing your lifelong condition easier. Please contact us so we can connect you with the appropriate support.*

*We only recommend experienced solicitors with a proven track record in cases like yours, who are willing to connect you with former clients to share their experiences and the positive outcomes of their claims.

As an amputee, understanding and accessing the benefits you’re entitled to can be a crucial step in your journey towards independence and financial stability. Please contact us so we can provide you with the correct information.

A core part of our mission is to bring amputees together. That's why we host a variety of exciting events that create spaces for connection, sharing experiences, and mutual support. Want to get involved? Visit our Events page to view our calendar of upcoming events.

How We Help

Our Dedicated Process for Guiding Your Journey

Our process ensures every amputee gets the dedicated support they need. Here’s what to expect after getting in touch with our passionate team. Come on, let’s navigate every challenge together.

1. Initial Contact

When hospital staff identify a new amputee or someone awaiting amputation, they reach out to us.

2. Information Gathering

We collect essential details like age, sex, type/level of amputation, reason for amputation, and contact information.

3. Matching Support

We find the most suitable support by matching amputees with volunteers who share similar experiences and characteristics.

4. Facilitating Visits

Our trained, vetted amputees (who are prosthetic users unless otherwise requested), visit the new amputee to offer advice and support.

5. Ongoing Support

We provide the amputee with contacts for user/support groups and maintain regular check-ins to ensure they receive the appropriate support and information.

Sound Good?

Our streamlined process has been praised by staff for its ease of use and positive rehabilitation results.
