 Limbpower  do a amazing job they Help so many people it makes a big difference to get in sport with a impairment you can get so much confindence and to socialise with other people who understand. without the work limbpower do things will be so different it's a life changer for so many people without it people will be lost and won't get through it and will be isolated There are so many people that don't know what Limbpower is and what they do which will make such a difference to them just to know that Limbpower is there to help them if they ever needed it. it's incredible the amount of people that don't even know about it. You don't need to be a sporty person it's just about being there try new things meet new people that understand each other of what they are going through which makes all the difference it's amazing.
