Mission & Vision

To help and support amputees in Liverpool and all areas of Merseyside. Our aim is to help as many amputees and carers as possible by offering support, advice and social contact through our Help & Advice Centre at The Breckfeild Centre, Liverpool.

Why am I chairman of ACSIL? I do it for the love of the club and the members. I am honoured to serve on the committee as an active and productive member, I regard members and carers as family and I try to help people as much as I can aided by my lovely wife Pat.


Our membership is diverse and interesting, from a young ex navy amputee to a 92 year old ex army veteran of WW2 who  is still an active member of ACSIL. We cater for both men and women of any age who have single or multiple amputations or who are in the process of getting same. 

We do a lot to improve life for amputees and their carers!
