Introduction from the Coalition

We are a coalition of spinal cord injury (SCI) charities and partner organisations. This consultation is an important step towards creating a National Spinal Cord Injury Strategy in the UK.



Our goal is to improve care, support, and rehabilitation for people living with SCI. Spinal cord injuries are life-changing, affecting individuals, their families, carers, and communities.



If we had a strategy, it would be a plan on what good looks like. This is your chance to shape this plan.



A National Spinal Cord Injury Strategy can create a fair and consistent approach to care, no matter where someone lives.



We are working with the NHS, government bodies, and the healthcare community to make sure the strategy prioritises:

  • Accessible rehabilitation
  • Lifelong support
  • Adequate funding and resources




Sincerely,
From the coalition:
