(UK, 1109751) Browse eventsHands for Life is a small charity which allows 3 UK Plastic Reconstructive and Hand Surgeons to provide specialist surgical help to a very large community which, although is primarily a leper colony, also provides home for a large variety of disabled residents with such diverse problems as deafness, blindness, amputation and diverse congenital abnormalities. The surgeons give their time free of charge as do the many support workers who staff the operating theatre and organise the patient care, some trained health care professionals, many not, but simply invaluable volunteers. These people principally use their holidays or unpaid leave of absence. Anaesthesia is provided by indigenous Indians from teaching hospital units who also give their time free. There is no overhead, no paid staff and no advertising or complex fundraising. Every penny goes direct to patient care so we can operate on each patient for £70 to £80 to complete their care. The work is very diverse but contains much corrective hand surgery for deformities caused by leprosy, correction of post burn deformity ( a major problem in a society that still cooks on open fires ) and correction of congenital deformity such as cleft lip and palate or hand deformity. We manage to treat more than 100 new patients each year. The community, called Anandwan, about 2hours from Nagpur in central India, looks after about 5000 people at any time. The majority are lepers, still a major problem in Indian with 500,000 new cases a year, but it also houses a school for the blind, the deaf, a limb fitting unit and many people with other diverse deformity or disability who are shunned in rural Indian society.
