Who We Are
The Aussie Hands Foundation Inc is a voluntary not-for-profit organisation of parents, carers, associated professionals and other interested people. We provide support, understanding and encouragement to individuals with a hand difference.
Each year Aussie Hands:
- Hosts social gatherings and organises programs to help reduce the isolation experienced by children, their parents and families. These activities enable members to build supportive relationships and self-confidence
- Provides a forum where parents can ask questions, receive support and gain a sense of hope about their child’s future
- Offers up-to-date information about prosthetics, aids and counselling services
- Supports families making difficult decisions about surgical procedures
- Raises awareness about hand differences within the community and to support research initiatives focusing on upper limb deficiencies and hand differences
