We carry out practical research to improve quality of life after paralysis

Story

On the 12th July 2017 I am cycling approximately 400 miles in 5 days (Solo). Starting from St David's Head in Wales and finishing at Lowestoft Ness in Norfolk. The furthest point West in Wales to the furthest point East in England.  
I am raising money for the National spinal injuries centre at Stoke Mandeville hospital where my Father was given excellent rehabilitation care after suffering a life changing spinal injury. 

Paralysis is a fact of life for the 40,000 people living with spinal cord injury, and it can happen to anyone. For the majority of people, being unable to walk is just another challenge to add to the many other difficulties they face on a daily basis. Pressure ulcers, urinary tract infections and pain are all a daily threat to quality of life, making it hard to 'get on with life'. SMSR is tackling these day to day challenges through research to ensure that individual's with spinal cord injury have the best quality of life possible.

About the charity

Paralysis. Life. Each day, some people wake up having to think about both. That's why we are here. With medical breakthroughs, technological innovation, and social insight - combined with your support, we can do more to help people to get on with life after paralysis.
