Hi I’m David, your support coordinator.

I have a T9 complete spinal cord injury due to a road traffic accident in Thailand in 2015. It’s left me paralysed from the waist down.

If you’ve recently become injured, already living with a spinal cord injury, or are close to someone who is, you’re in the right place.

Book an appointment with me here and I can refer you to the most suitable services available locally and nationally and offer my insight and experience into life with a spinal cord injury.

Just choose an available slot below and I look forward to speaking with you soon.
