CES UK Vision – Everyone diagnosed with Cauda Equina Syndrome  has access to quality information, informed advice and guidance and the appropriate level of support.

About the charity

CES occurs when the 'Cauda Equina' nerves at the bottom of the spine are damaged, often by trauma or disc prolapse, which can result in a devastating disability. We are the only registered UK charity which offers support to those affected by CES and works to raise awareness of the condition.
