Dear Pieter,

 

The New Face for Leprosy website will go live on World Leprosy Day Jan 31 2021. https://newfaceleprosy.com/  The New Face team hope to reduce the stigma associated with leprosy by showing people affected by leprosy leading normal lives with jobs, families and interests. The people have a message of hope " do not despair, leprosy is not hereditary. You should see my beautiful grandchildren".

The photographs and stories of people in Ethiopia and India have been published, we have given lectures and exhibited photos in London supported by Lepra.

We shall post more stories and photos on the website.  The project will be expanded to other countries in the future.  We thank Lepra UK for supporting this project.

Best wishes,
