INTRODUCING SIA’S NEW SEVEN-YEAR STRATEGY
2023 2030
Tens of thousands of people in the UK live with spinal cord injury (SCI) and every day seven more people will be paralysed for the rest of their lives because of damage to their spinal cord. As the Spinal Injuries Association (SIA) continues to fight for the rights and needs of everyone affected by SCI, they have launched their Strategy 2030. Here, SIA explain their seven-year plan to transform the situation faced by people who live with SCI nationwide.
OUR VISION
A fulfilled life for everyone affected by spinal cord injury
On Saturday, 1 April 2023, SIA launched its new seven-year
strategy. Underpinned by our continued vision of a fulfilled life for everyone affected by spinal
cord injury, our strategy plans are simple to state, mighty to plan and
inspiring to imagine.
For 50 years we’ve been the UK’s national association for people who live with SCI. We are made up of passionate individuals, who fight for the rights
and needs of people living with SCI nationwide.
We have become the expert, guiding voice – for people who live with spinal cord injury, their families, for professionals and organisations in our sector and for the public, the media and the government. And that continues to be the purpose at the heart of our strategy.
OUR PURPOSE
To be the expert, guiding voice for life after spinal cord injury
