Children's Activity Prosthetic Fund Eligibility Criteria

Between now and the end of March 2018, the Department of Health is making available a total of £750,000 to fund prostheses in England for children who have suffered limb loss or were born with a limb deficiency, to enable them to engage in physical activity and sports. NHS Limb centres in England may request funds from the Department of Health for individual prosthesis they have prescribed up to the value of £5000 (per limb not per child), including all the associated costs of fitting the new limb, such as a new socket or liner.
