Welcome to the Limb Loss Information Centre. This online resource has been created to guide individuals with congenital or acquired limb loss and their friends, family and carers through the emotional, physical and psychological process of coming to terms with limb loss.
We have taken a holistic approach to limb loss and hope that through this we can provide relevant and useful information on all aspects of life after limb loss. We have tried to make the site as easy to navigate as possible and hope that you can find the information you need here.
Please do look at the frequently asked questions section of the site where we have collated questions asked by other amputees, their families and carers.
If you can’t find what you are looking for please do contact us and we will either research the information ourselves or put you in touch with the person best suited to answer your questions.

They got chatting over a meal, the idea of the Games was born and David says they never looked back.
