We are excited to be offering two more Children and Young People’s Taster Days this year, in Wigan and Birmingham.

We welcome all children and young people under the age of 18 who have spinal cord injury, and their families to come along and join us! These free events are perfect for families who haven’t yet had a chance to access our services, would like to meet other families, and want to find out more about what we provide.

Applications are currently open. Places are limited so we encourage you to apply early to avoid disappointment.
