A CHARITABLE TRUST REGISTERED NUMBER 294581

Since 1986 Sandy Gall's Afghanistan Appeal (SGAA) has provided artificial limbs and walking aids for more than 20,000 patients and physiotherapy treatment for nearly 50,000 patients. The Halo Trust says there are still hundreds of thousands of landmines in Afghanistan, the result of 25 years of virtually uninterrupted warfare. In consequence an enormous number of Afghans have been disabled; the UN estimates 3% of the population are directly affected and 10% indirectly affected.
