Have your say in the future of SCI research.

Researchers at ICORD, a world-leading spinal cord injury research centre at the University of British Columbia, invite individuals with SCI to participate in an international survey.

This is your chance to share your top recovery priorities and help shape research that truly reflects the needs of the SCI community.

The survey will be released across 18 countries to compare priorities worldwide. Your input will guide future research, improve education about which health challenges matter most, and drive better treatment options for people living with SCI.

Your voice matters. Join participants worldwide and help shape the future of SCI research.

✨ Client Feedback ✨

I recently supported a newly sustained Cauda Equina Syndrome client through a video consultation. 💻

In our session, I was able to provide:
✅ Initial advice & tailored exercise recommendations
✅ Guidance on suitable equipment
✅ Signposting to charities & resources
✅ A GP referral letter to a Spinal Cord Injury Centre

Here’s what they had to say:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Overall I was extremely satisfied with the assessment and recommendations I received.
Sally’s expertise in dealing with my neurological condition was excellent.
I would definitely recommend her to someone with a spinal cord injury or cauda equina syndrome.”

Early intervention and the right guidance can really shape someone’s recovery journey after SCI or CES , I’m grateful to be part of that process.

It’s – Spinal Cord Injury Awareness Day

New stats show that over 4,700 people in the UK sustained or were diagnosed with a spinal cord injury in the past year – a 7% increase from 2024. This rise is partly due to improved data collection, but also more injuries occurring later in life. It’s a reminder that spinal cord injury can affect anyone, at any time.

I see every day how vital the right support is, and I regularly signpost, volunteer, fundraise, work with, and alongside these incredible organisations:
• – Supporting and advising the 105,000 people living with spinal cord injury in the UK
• – Supporting people of all ages to rebuild their confidence and live life without limits
• – Practical help for people paralysed by spinal cord injury, helping them move from injury to independence
• – Getting people active again through inclusive sport
• – Peer support and representation across Scotland
• – Driving research to restore movement and function
• – Building accessible gardens in NHS spinal centres across the UK—calm, welcoming spaces to take a breath, connect with loved ones, and feel part of a supportive community
• – Funding research vital to improving quality of life for people living with paralysis
• – Supporting sports tetraplegics to live full, active lives

Nine charities. One goal. Raising awareness and support for everyone affected by spinal cord injury. These organisations and many others do truly amazing work.

I had the pleasure of taking a client to the “have a go shooting” session today with Disability Shooting Great Britain, based at the Stoke Mandeville Stadium.

To better understand the experience and how I can best support him in pursuing shooting as a sport, I had a go myself, and thanks to a bit of beginner’s luck, scored 91/100!

Huge thanks to Damian and the team at DSGB for creating such an inclusive and welcoming environment. We’ll be back!

✨ Client Feedback✨

I’m so grateful for this wonderful feedback from a recent male client whom I had the privilege of supporting with bowel dysfunction following a spinal cord injury. 🙏

"I was very happy with my sessions. My goal was to manage my bowels in a healthy way and without medication. Through Sally's help, I was able to achieve this within a few months. She offered great exercises and recommended apps and equipment that I use every day. My routine and lifestyle improved significantly after meeting Sally."

This is exactly why I’m so passionate about pelvic health in SCI/CES. Feedback like this motivates me and reinforces the positive impact we can make on improving quality of life. 🙏✨

📅 Men’s Health Awareness Month

November is all about raising awareness for men’s health issues, and this Movember, I'm shining a light on the challenges faced by men with spinal cord injuries (SCI) and cauda equina syndrome (CES).

🚹 Did you know?

- 80% of the SCI population is male.
- SCI rates are rising among men over 65, with falls as a leading cause.
- 75% of men with SCI experience sexual dysfunction.
- Depression impacts 40% of men with SCI, compared to 14% in the general population.
- Men with SCI are at higher risk of cardiovascular disease and face high unemployment rates two years after injury.

💡 This month, let’s talk openly about these issues and support initiatives that improve quality of life for men with SCI & CES.
