To mark Limb Difference Awareness Month, clothing designer Anna-Maria Mountfort is leading the charge in giving children with limb conditions clothes that fit — starting with her clothing brand mimiTENS. Mountfort held a photoshoot in Liberty Village on Sunday, bringing in children with various limb conditions and their parents. (Keith Burgess/CBC)Mountfort learned about the needs of "limb different" children when a hand surgeon from Sick Kids Hospital walked into her shop to buy mittens for a patient. Realizing the demand for adaptive clothing, she decided to take on the challenge of providing clothes for kids across Canada. "For kids to know that there's other kids just like them and things are going to be okay, that's really important."
