lepra
Lepra is a UK registered international charity. With a history spanning almost 90 years, they currently work on the frontline in India and Bangladesh to treat, educate, rehabilitate and give a voice to people affected by disease, poverty and prejudice and discrimination.
== History ==
Lepra started life in 1924 as the 'British Empire Leprosy Relief Association', by Sir Leonard Rogers, with financial help from
Sir Frank Carter, a Calcutta businessman and philanthropist. Since then Lepra has grown to be an international charity giving a voice to people living at the intersection of disease, poverty and prejudice by helping them to improve their health, lives and livelihoods.
In the beginning Lepra boldly stated ‘to rid the Empire of leprosy’ as a medical organisation, spearheading outpatient work instead of resorting to traditional methods of segregating people with leprosy.
Lepra now addresses not only leprosy, but also other diseases of poverty including malaria, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and lymphatic filariasis.
Throughout Lepra’s history, the reigning monarch has always been Lepra’s patron. In the 1950s, King George VI became the first of the Royal family to sponsor children through their adoption scheme at the time. Queen Elizabeth II is the current patron.
