A disability such as a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) can be a life changing experience. An individual’s life can be thrown into turmoil, as well as the lives of family members. Our team of advisors are here to support you all the way.

Over a single month we respond to more than 300 enquiries, delivering sound specialist advice and information. We deal with a wide range of subjects - whether you’re after equipment, suitable housing, information on wheelchairs etc.
