Reflecting on Bridging the Gap 🌉

Four weeks ago, we gathered, we listened, and we learned about the latest solution-focused projects and interventions to support those experiencing limb loss🦿

With an audience of old and new friends, we came together with a common purpose.

Thank you so much to our presenters, our volunteers and our guests who all joined the collaboration aimed at furthering and sharing knowledge of what’s happening now, but also what’s possible to improve the experience and lives of amputees across the country.

We’re hugely grateful to you all and our friends at Evelyn Partners for enabling us to make this happen! Looking forward to the next one.
