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

Story

We love podcasting, but we love supporting our fellow spinally injured even more. 

That’s why members of the Spinal Crap team are taking on the Aspire Channel Swim 2019, 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. 

We all have different types and levels of Spinal Cord Injury, but for those of us lucky enough to be able to swim again, this is an epic challenge. We’re going to give it our very best shot.

Taking part in the Aspire Channel Swim is as much a celebration of how far we’ve come in our recoveries as it is a way to lend a helping hand to our friends and members of the SCI community who need the brilliant support that Aspire can give them.

If you’re a fan of the podcast, we’d really appreciate if you could show your love by digging deep and supporting the team.
