Steel Bones is community-based and demand-led. It provides direct support where there is a geographical or service need. It provides advice, guidance, or signposting to relevant services to help amputee families navigate the complex, and often confusing, amputee support landscape.
Our telephone support service, the Bones Line, our website, and our online community help support amputee families across England and Wales. Our local, volunteer-led, Steel Bones hubs work on the ground with amputee families in their own communities.
