The Leprosy Mission England and Wales is an international Christian development organisation which is autonomous and works as part of The Leprosy Mission's worldwide family. Our overall vision is a world without leprosy, and our priority for the future is to stay focused until the work is finished, helping people in England and Wales to understand the disease and encouraging them to support the Mission.
We are motivated by God's love and concern for people affected by leprosy as reflected in our mission statement, with a holistic view, addressing the physical, social, economic and spiritual needs of individuals and their communities. All our services are provided regardless of religion or ethnicity. Jesus' ministry inspires us that every person everywhere has a right to a hope and a future. It is unacceptable that many people affected by leprosy are denied this because of social exclusion or poverty. The Leprosy Mission works with partners in around 30 countries to bridge this gap of inequality.
We remain committed to continuing our focus on leprosy whilst strengthening our work with people with physical disabilities and those experiencing social exclusion.
