Every purchase helps someone affected by leprosy
Aged just 15, Henry Oster arrived in Auschwitz where he volunteered to work in the stables, responsible for breeding horses for the war effort. He soon realised that these horses were his only lifeline - because every morning he was sent to the stables, was one more morning he escaped the gas chambers. Before long, caring for the horses became a passion, and their comfort and strength gave Henry a glimmer of light in the darkest of times. A true story of courage, hope and survival. Henry was one of the very few who survived the concentration camp, ultimately becoming a Professor of Optometry in California.

Change Lives With Your Shopping
Your purchase can help to end leprosy. Shopping with us will help fund leprosy research which is vital to ending leprosy transmission by 2035. Recent developments in genotyping strains of leprosy have improved accuracy of finding the source of transmission, meaning tracking and tracing of cases can be much more effective. There is also a PCR test for leprosy being developed which would be a game changer in faster and more accurate diagnosis of leprosy.
