What LimbPower does

LimbPower is a UK registered charity (No. 1180906) founded in November 2009 and headquartered in Lingfield, Surrey, that supports amputees and individuals with limb difference to bridge the gap between hospital rehabilitation and community engagement. The charity operates as one of nine National Disability Sports Organisations (NDSO) recognised by Sport England, a status it has held since July 2014, and delivers its mission through a portfolio of programmes including the LimbPower Games, LimbPower Junior Games, reVAMP (a 12-week adapted fitness and nutrition programme that has served over 360 participants across 16 cycles), three tiered residential camps (ICan Adult, Family and Teen), daily online adapted exercise classes delivered via Eventbrite, and the UR:Enabled amputee-led workout video series co-produced with Walk:Enabled CIC and funded by Sport England. Distribution extends into NHS Limb Centres through Physical Activity Advisers and Nordic Walking Instructors, providing direct clinical-to-community referral pathways, while digital touchpoints include a YouTube channel, blog and newsletter, complemented by the Amputee BMI Calculator as a domain-specialised digital tool.

The business model is donation- and grant-based: LimbPower provides all programmes free of charge to participants and is funded through a combination of Sport England grants, corporate gold supporters (Ottobock, Stewarts Law, Leigh Day, London Prosthetic Centre, Limb Solutions, Axis), targeted foundation grants (Fletchers Foundation) and individual donations channelled via JustGiving. The organisation operates with a small core team of four employees led by CEO Kiera Roche, supported by a board of trustees, patrons, ambassadors (including Paralympians Ellie Challis, Andy Lewis and Mari Durward-Akhurst, and paraclimber Anoushé Husain), and a sports advisory panel. Its strategic posture is that of a mission-driven connective tissue between clinical rehabilitation, prosthetic manufacturers, personal-injury law firms and the amputee community, with geographic scope confined to the United Kingdom and an emphasis on community-led, event-driven and increasingly digital engagement channels.
