The Leprosy Mission is an interdenominational Christian medical mission currently working in over 30 countries where leprosy remains a major public health issue.
The Mission seeks to address the physical, mental and spiritual needs of those suffering from leprosy and will continue assisting with rehabilitation until there is no longer any need and the disease is eradicated. The Mission works in co-operation with governments, local churches and other non-government organisations to train national staff and provide medical and technical expertise where required. The mission supports around 2,000 national and expatriate staff made up of doctors, nurses, physiotherapists and paramedical workers.
The Leprosy Mission Australia can trace its origins to 1900. It officially began operating as an organisation in 1913 and has operated continually since then. It is the only charity in Australia totally dedicated to the needs of leprosy sufferers.
91 new leprosy cases are identified every hour of every day and they need your support.
