Impact is an international programme prevent disability.  They have already restored sight, mobility and hearing, or repaired cleft lips for almost 800,000 people and prevented a lifetime of disability for many thousands more.

All of their projects are run by local people, in touch with the needs in their communities, who also contribute resources assuring the work is cost effective and appropriate.

The aim is that no-one should become needlessly disabled by disease, lack of knowledge or shortage of medical services.
 

World Health Organisation figures

According to World Health Organisation estimates, 7-10% of the world`s people are disabled.  80% of them live in developing countries and one third are children.

IMPACT say they are convinced that, with the effective delivery of modern technology and knowledge, at least half of this disability is preventable and much is reversible or curable at low cost.
