What happens to poor-quality legs?

Prosthetic limbs that do not meet our stringent quality standards for refurbishment undergo a careful assessment to determine the most responsible course of action. While we strive to recycle as much as possible, particularly metal components, we acknowledge that not all parts of a prosthetic limb can be recycled due to the nature of their materials, such as silicone liners and damaged feet. In these cases, we are committed to minimising waste and exploring environmentally responsible disposal methods. Our priority remains to ensure that every donation we receive is utilised in the most effective and sustainable way possible, reflecting our dedication to both our mission and environmental stewardship.
