About the organisation
Wellesley Bailey, the founder of The Leprosy Mission, said this after he saw first-hand the appalling living conditions and social isolation of people suffering from leprosy in 1869.
It wasn’t until 1913 when Bailey and his wife Alice visited Australia that he inspired locals to found their very own support chapter.
The Leprosy Mission Australia was formed to raise awareness about leprosy and provide financial support to bring hope and healing to people affected by the disease.
