Trusts and Foundations

 SIA’s annual report is very well presented. Some charities are good at giving stories but not numbers or vice versa. SIA’s impact snapshot is easier to read than pages and pages of text and numbers.

SIA's support network team

Every two hours, a person’s life is changed forever when they sustain a spinal cord injury  (SCI). Spinal cord injury causes paralysis below the level of injury and is something no one can prepare for.

Thanks to the support of trusts and foundations, we can provide a holistic support network of services to ensure people with spinal cord injury can rebuild their lives.
