Dola Gunde's thumb spica
Dola Gunde

Dola Gunde’s mum brought her daughter to 500 miles aged 15 months because, as a result of cerebral palsy at birth, her right thumb is permanently turned in. This makes both her thumb and her fingers dysfunctional. 500 miles made a thumb spica for Dola from light weight, washable, mouldable plastic. It will train her thumb into a functional position and allow her fingers to move freely – even if she doesn’t think much of it at the moment!
