My brother and I will be driving 2000 miles around Europe in 5 days in a "banger", camping along the way to raise money for this important charity that has recently become close to our hearts. If it helps I hate camping and the "banger" has no air con. Steve has added air horns, strobe lights and many stickers to it so we will look and sound ridiculous and apparently I have to wear a special T-shirt...in fact I am not sure what made me agree to this. Any amount will help no matter how big or small and my employers (Autotrader) will price match if we get to £200 so here's hoping.
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.
