About the event
This WAASP community initiative is aimed at supporting attendance at the 2024 Ossur Perth Mobility Clinic for amputees and allied health professionals who are passionate about improving the lives of amputees in WA.
Western Australia Amputee Sports Program (WAASP) is a not-for-profit charity that has emerged to inspire and support the amputee community. WAASP has been designed for amputees to partake in various sporting opportunities, identify future athletic pathways and improve overall mobility.
Our mission is to provide personal experiences for amputees to have a great time taking part in sporting opportunities, learn new skills from both able-bodied and Paralympic athletes, as well as connecting with other amputees and their families.
