What we do
Team UnLimbited strives to be a catalyst for change in the complex world of upper limb devices. By giving the world a helping hand, we can help improve the confidence and courage of children and adults with limb difference. And ultimately, work towards removing the long-standing stigma around discussing disability.
“…You have transformed the lives of children across the world in allowing thousands of people from around the world to freely access your 3D designs.”
The British Prime Minister, December 2017
UnLimbited designs
From one simple act of kindness to a world-renowned design house; Team UnLimbited produce easy, cost-effective, and attractive alternatives to the current, clunky and expensive, prosthetic options available.
Simple and empowering
Team UnLimbited arms are the first fully parametric, thermo-formed 3D printed limbs. Light-weight, highly customisable and colourful, they are extremely cost-effective. The average production cost is £30 per arm.
Always free of charge
All Team UnLimbited designs are open source and freely available to anyone in the world. To print a device, download our free blueprints, to be used on your 3D printer. Your arm will be completed within 24 hours.
UnLimbited impact
We might not be all over the news, all of the time. But Team UnLimbited know how to make an impact. From one to one projects, to partnership programmes and international exposure on the 3D printing technology circuit, here’s what we’ve been up to.
Isabella, the first recipient
With 3 million views of her receiving her UnLimbited arm, a spot in Google’s ‘Year in Search 2017’ video, and Channel 4’s ‘Super Humans’ Paralympics TV ad, this was the device that started it all.
Ideas festival, AbuDhabi
As keynote speakers at the world-famous ‘Ideas’ festival, Team UnLimbited continue to explore some of the most important ideas and innovations spanning the globe.
A helping hand in developing countries
Team Unlimbited designs have made a practical difference to children and adults in the UK, as well as those in numerous less economically developed countries.
As a charity, Team UnLimbited relies completely on donations to help fund our work. We need your support so we can continue to evolve our designs, increase the community of manufacturers, and keep providing arms - free of charge - for recipients around the world.

Every penny goes towards advancing the designs and to continue providing arms for free.
