We support people with Spinal Cord Injury to help them live full, independent lives

Story

I'm taking on the Aspire Channel Swim 2020, swimming the distance of the English Channel over 12 weeks to raise money for Aspire. Every four hours someone is paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury and Aspire provides the essential equipment, advice and housing that spinal cord injured people need to live their lives independently. This is a big challenge, but the more I raise, the more of a difference I'll make, so please be generous!

Hi my name is Scott, I’m 9 years old, I’m currently in year 5 at school. I’m doing this swim along side my 2 big brother josh 16 soon and Ben 13. Josh did this challenge last year solo and i was inspired by him to join him. I was told at the start of this year i have high functioning autism but mum will just say I’m Scott, josh as serve autism, and adhd and is non verbal, but if we talk about lego we have mini conversations. 

I wanted to this challenge so that i can help others live their best life. And its something i can look back on that i did this with my big brothers.
