Hi, my name is Gary Dawson. I am the Support Network Manager in the West side of England, Wales and Northern Ireland for the Spinal Injuries Association.
I was injured in 2003 after a motorcycle accident – resulting in a T6 complete spinal cord injury. Since then I’ve become a case officer helping to support people like you. Believe me, life after injury doesn’t just stop (I didn’t!)
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.

We’ve split these across three key areas:
Body MattersUnderstanding the changes to our bodies after spinal cord injury is an essential part of the healing journey. Armed with the right information about the physical changes you can expect after injury, you can rebuild a life that is rich and fulfilling.
Mind MattersThe physical changes that come with a spinal cord injury are only part of the puzzle – recognising what happens in our minds is equally important to rebuilding a fulfilling life. Read on to learn more about everything from mental health and self-image to relationships and isolation.
Life MattersA spinal cord injury can mean that life changes quite dramatically – that’s not to say this has to be negative. Life does go on, and with a solid understanding of how to navigate this new experience, there can be many joyous times ahead.
