WE DID IT!!🎉🎉

A huge thank you to everyone who supported #CornflowerBall2023.

Your incredible help means we were able to raise a record £200,000!

This money will make a massive difference to the lives of so many people affected by #spinalcordinjury.

Thank you all so much💙

One of our most engaging patient speakers at #MedTechWeek2022 was @davebracher1. We spoke to him about how medical technology has changed his life and why the NHS must do more to improve access to #medtech for all patients.

Called 'A “gloriously ordinary life”: Spotlight on adult social care', our report calls for a more positive and resilient approach to #SocialCare.

This is why, as a starting point, we have endorsed #socialcarefuture's vision. We believe it should form the basis of future reform.

Man paralysed from neck down ‘not eligible’ for night-time care.
https://t.co/thEAjKBmSt My colleague Mandie Jamieson from @spinalinjuries is supporting him. This gives me hope for a +ve decision but the system is clearly flawed. How many more don't get the care they need?

The call by @hospiceuk for the UK COVID-19 Inquiry to investigate deaths in people's own homes alongside deaths in hospitals and care homes, was supported by 31 charities, including @spinalinjuries. Community support staff are amazing, but need and deserve much better support.
