On Sunday 25th January the Grand Priory of England and Wales launches its World Leprosy Day 2026 Appeal. This appeal is to provide funds to support the work of The Leprosy Mission of England and Wales (LMEW) to track, trace and treat leprosy in children in Mozambique and Nigeria.
By engaging with this tremendous project in Africa the members of the Grand Priory are assisting the LMEW in a much wider targeted project this year across the developing world. The Leprosy Mission of England and Wales has produced a video for the Grand Priory that graphically highlights the plight of those we are hoping to assist.
