Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page and make a donation to Legs4Africa in loving memory of our Dad, Des Stapleton.
All of you who knew Dad will also know that he lost his leg at the tender age of just sixteen years.
Dad had a love of Africa and visited Kenya twice, where he and Mum donated school supplies for the local children.
Dad never let his amputation hold him back and we think he would like the idea that rather than flowers, donations could help others overcome the loss of a limb.
His two prosthetic legs and stump socks are also being donated to Legs4Africa via the Blatchford - Mobility & Specialised Rehabilitation Centre at Sheffield Northern General Hospital.
Legs4Africa's (Registered Charity no.1158697) mission is to help amputees live independently, through the provision of prosthetic legs, along with physical and emotional rehabilitation. They have built & repaired over 10,000 prosthetic legs.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and secure. Once you donate, they'll send your donation directly to the Legs4Africa charity,
Thank you for helping Dad continue to make a difference to many lives.
Malc, Louise, and Racheal.
