Reach is an association which provides contact and support for families with children having any form of hand or arm deficiency. Such deficiencies may be present at birth or through accident or necessary surgery.
Hand or arm deficiency is relatively rare, so many professionals involved in health care do not come across it very often, if at all. Reach has considerable knowledge and experience in supporting health workers, parents and all involved.
Many children and their families have found, since the formation of Reach in 1978, that early and continued contact with others having similar experiences is of immense value.
