Reference excerpt

The Rotary Jaipur Limb Project (RJLP) is a registered charitable organisation located in the United Kingdom. Its mission is to raise funds and build workshops to provide the Jaipur Foot to needy patients who have undergone below-the-knee amputations as a result of accident, disease, or in cases of congenital defects.

History In 1984, two Rotary volunteers, the late Peter Betteridge from the Rotary Club of Godalming, RI District 1250, and his wife Jessamine, visited the workshops of Bhagwan Mahaveer Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS) in Jaipur, India, a charitable organisation which runs permanent limb centres and limb camps throughout India. Upon their return to the U.K., they, together with other Rotarians, began to raise funds to help support limb camps in India. The project expanded into creating RJLP's first permanent limb centres in Kammam, India and Nairobi, Kenya in 1990. In 1994, RJLP was registered as a recognised charity.

Activities Over the years, RJLP has financed limb camps or established permanent limb centres in Bangladesh, Benin, Congo (Democratic Republic,) Ethiopia, The Gambia, Ghana, Haiti, Honduras, India, Kenya, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Tanzania, Uganda, Zimbabwe and Caribbean countries. It has provided an estimated 50,000 prosthetic limbs in India and 30,000 in Africa, as well as crutches and wheelchairs. The average cost of a Jaipur limb in India is approximately £70 or US$95 (as of 2023) and it is provided at no cost to the recipient.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Rotary Jaipur Limb Project

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Rotary Jaipur Limb Project claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Rotary Jaipur Limb Project before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Rotary Jaipur Limb Project ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Rotary Jaipur Limb Project

In research: Rotary Jaipur Limb Project appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Rotary Jaipur Limb Project in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Rotary Jaipur Limb Project is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Charities for disabled people based in the United Kingdom, Jaipur, Prosthetics, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Rotary Jaipur Limb Project outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
