We are Walk:Enabled CIC, a community interest company working with people with amputation and limb-difference. As part of our work, we offer support for those returning to activity as well as research exploring physical activity and limb-difference. 

The UR:Enabled exercise programme was developed as part of a seven-year research project, with direct input from the community. The programme was piloted with amputee participants and it significantly increased their physical activity levels. Increased activity levels were also maintained after the programme was completed. You can access the paper . 

Thanks to funding from Sport England and the National Lottery and in partnership with the charity LimbPower, we have produced two series (Beginner and Advanced) of videos, aimed at providing post-rehabilitation amputees with access to at-home adapted workouts. 

This is the first ever validated exercise programme and video series, made specifically for and with amputees, that includes different levels of difficulty to allow participants to make gradual progression in increasing their fitness. 

By popular demand the programme has also been adapted into a pirate-themed series of videos for kids, featuring children with amputation and limb-difference. 

If you have questions about the exercise programme or Walk:Enabled, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,

Miranda

With just a month to go until #Greener AHP Week 2026# (Monday, 20th to Friday 24th April 2026), this is an important opportunity for us in Prosthetics and Orthotics to engage with sustainability and reflect on how it shapes our daily practice. 

Sustainability is increasingly relevant to our profession. From the materials we use and the waste we generate to how we manage stock and deliver services; our decisions have a direct impact on the environment. By making more conscious choices, we can reduce waste, improve efficiency, and contribute to a more sustainable healthcare system. 

Greener AHP Week provides a valuable platform to learn, share, and take practical action. The programme includes a range of sessions focused on carbon reduction, digital sustainability, and tools to support more sustainable ways of working across AHP services. 

It would be lovely to take a moment and explore the full programme and consider joining the sessions:  

This is a chance to build knowledge, gain practical insights, and play an active role in shaping a more sustainable future for our profession. 

Let’s engage, contribute, and take steps individually and collectively towards becoming greener champions within Prosthetics and Orthotics.

You can choose to be a Greener Champion today, pilot sustainable projects in your services and join the Susnet. Our small steps now can make a better Greener future.
