Spinal injury

The effects of a spinal injury can be devastating and are often life changing for the individual, family and friends who are affected.

Effects of spinal injuries

Serious spinal injuries can lead to paralysis of the legs (paraplegia) or of the arms and legs (tetraplegia).  Bladder, bowel and sexual function can be affected too.  People with spinal injuries often suffer from a loss of mobility and many become wheelchair users.

As well as dealing with the sudden change in lifestyle, people with spinal injuries often suffer financial problems as well.
