Sandra Pearce, Trust and Corporate Advisor at The Leprosy Mission, writes to update us on our World Leprosy Day 2023 project.
'We are thrilled to be partnering with The Order of Saint Lazarus of Jerusalem - England & Wales to introduce innovative medical treatment to Ethiopia later this year. Ulcers are common among people affected by leprosy, and complex cases can take months to heal. But this revolutionary treatment can heal ulcers in a matter of weeks. We can’t wait to share the results later this year.
A big thank you to the Order for your incredible World Leprosy Day fundraising effort! You can read more about L-PRF treatment and the difference it has already been making to people affected by leprosy in Nepal here'
