25.01.2022 The Peer Support program gives assurance to new amputees that they are not alone in their journey. It gives them hope and shows them how other amputees have managed to get on with their lives, return to community, work, family, and everyday living. Early in 2021 Limbs 4 Life will be conducting Peer Support Volunteer training in Victoria and South Australia. If you would like to become a volunteer and provide support to new amputees, please submit your application via the link below. Training in other states will be announced shortly. https://www.limbs4life.org.au//become-a-peer-support-volun

Advice to his fellow amputees is to stay positive, set goals, listen to the professionals, interact with others and most importantly, not to take your family for granted....
