There has been a shortage of accessible social housing for years.  As we see more younger people ensuring amputations due to more skilful surgery and the rise of diabetes and sepsis, there are not enough homes to go around.  We are also aware there is a huge delay on home adaptations.  Decent housing is a basic human right that helps people to have independent, fulfilled lives.

Please help us get to the bottom of how this impacts the amputee community by completing this short survey: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/FRG5KRP
