We help people with spinal cord injury to transform their lives

Story

In 2016 Adrian was hit by a 4 x 4  pickup truck whilst he was participating in a charity bike ride from Newcastle to London. There was a high chance of being paralysed but with the joint efforts of other riders, air ambulance and surgeons he was lucky to recover well. Here is his story from bbc 3 I player on YouTube https://youtu.be/MRzocGhHJWw not all people are as lucky as he was, so Adrian and his wife Louise are raising money for the people suffering with the life changing condition of a spinal injury.
