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

Story

Hi everyone!

Over the past 6 weeks, I have been the equivalent length across the English Channel in a swimming pool to raise money for people who have been paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury. I am now halfway through my challenge, and I hope to complete it soon!

Every eight hours someone is paralysed by Spinal Cord Injury. It can happen to anyone at any time, and there is currently no cure. Every pound that I raise means that Aspire can provide practical help to a spinal injured person, allowing them to live a more independent life, so please donate as much as you can and help make a difference.

This is an extremely worthy cause, and I urge you to either donate to the charity or learn more about Spinal Cord injuries, as it is a relatively unknown but greatly traumatic experience. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!

Gill :)
