What is the Spinal Injuries Association?
The Spinal Injuries Association (SIA) is the leading national charity for spinal cord injured people. We are unique in that we are a user led organisation; our elected Trustees are all spinal cord injured and are voted for by the spinal cord injured membership.
Our aims are to:
- Offer support and assistance from the time of injury and for the rest of a paralysed person's life
- Provide services to increase an individual's quality of life
- Support the families of newly injured people
- Increase knowledge and awareness of the causes and consequences of spinal cord injury
- Campaign for the best medical and social care for spinal cord injured people
We hope you will explore our website where you will find a wealth of information, experiences and ideas.
