A young local amputee has entered the new year with appreciation.
17-year-old Samuel Hall of Grafton, looks back on the support he has received from The War Amps.
Hall was born a left foot amputee and, as a member of The War Amps Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program, is eligible for financial assistance for the cost of artificial limbs and recreational devices.

He says he also attends regional CHAMP seminars as a junior counselor.

There is still much to do to ensure amputees, like Hall, have the artificial limbs or devices they need.
