In April 2010, Ray Edwards set up Limbcare, a charity that aims to help and support limb impaired people. This has been a vision of his since he became an amputee in 1987 and has made him more determined than ever to give something back to society, especially to disabled people and to offer hope and inspiration through the knowledge he has gained with his own disability.
Limbcare's mission statement says 'Creating independence for all limb impaired people and helping individuals improve their quality of life, offering empathy not sympathy'. That is the charity's aim and everything it does is to support that aim.
The future plans of Limbcare are to obtain a property. This will be known as 'Limbcare Centre' and will be a very unique opportunity to help individuals, their families and carers to come together to get help and support with counselling, health and fitness, access and property adaptations and to enjoy a relaxation area and fully equipped gym.
We have a dedicated team at Limbcare all with the same desire and determination, many are amputees themselves and as such the ethos of Limbcare is becoming a reality.
If you would like to find out more about Limbcare its work and the team or make a donation to this worthwhile cause then please contact us at www.limbcare.org

You may recall back in December last year that I had successfully bid for an auction lot for a flight simulator ride for two and through the newsletter offered the second seat up for auction to help raise further money for the Limbcare charity of which I am Patron.
