Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you’d like more information about this exciting and worthwhile child-focused initiative  or if you’d like to become involved. The DOUGLAS BADER FOUNDATION relies almost entirely on donations and fund-raising and we need your help to continue this and our other valuable work on behalf of amputees and other disabled.

If you would like to run a fund-raising event of your own, we are always happy to offer advice and support.

In any event(!), do please feel free to contact us, we’re always delighted to hear from you and contact details can be found on the new BADER BRAVES page. (You can click the link to get there.)

Introduction

The Douglas Bader Foundation is a charity organisation, formed in honour of Sir Douglas Bader in 1982 by family and friends, many of whom had flown side by side with Douglas during World War 2. Douglas was honoured in 1976 with a Knighthood for his contribution and work on behalf of the disabled. The mission of the foundation is to continue Douglas' work in conjunction with and on behalf of individuals with a disability. read more >

There’s already our popular Forum for information, support & chat. But sometimes you may feel in need of something extra.

You’re special to us you know! So we thought you’d like a more personal service for more specific advice or maybe to make a 1-2-1 contact with another amputee.
