Meet your host – Sau Tran
Hi! My name is Sau Tran, and I’m your new regional support coordinator in the Greater London area.
I sustained my injury in a road traffic accident in August 2013, whilst training to do the London to Paris cycle ride with friends. The last thing I remember was having a massive slice of cake at the cafe we were meeting at! I was airlifted to the hospital and induced into a coma. I’m T3 complete, with no movement or sensation below my level of injury.
Outside of work, I love travelling and adventure. I have bungee jumped in Australia, paraglided in Brazil, ziplined along the Niagara Falls, scuba dived in Egypt, Mexico and the Galapagos islands … the only continent I’ve not been to is Antarctica! I also enjoy eating out and tasting new cuisines, and try to keep fit by doing CrossFit.
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. You can book a support session, book a call or find out more about the upcoming community groups by contacting your local support coordinator.
