Story
Every eight hours someone sustains a spinal cord injury and is told they may never walk again. There is no warning, no preventative medicine and no time to prepare. Spinal cord injuries can happen to anyone at any time. Aspire is there to support people after their injury to ensure they live a fulfilled and independent life. We provide a nationwide network of support for people with spinal cord injuries including adapted accessible houses, specialist computer equipment, practical advice and grants for the necessary equipment to lead an independent and fulfilled life.
I am swimming 22 miles mainly in a local lake and a bit in the gym pool over the next 12 weeks to help raise awareness of spinal injuries.
