Calling all people with spinal cord injury (SCI). If you have lived with SCI for 6 months or longer, you are 18 years or older, and you live in Australia or New Zealand, we invite you to take part in our short survey. We are currently exploring why s*x differences arise in recovery after SCI and we need to understand if this is due to s*x differences in physical therapy participation. Your valuable input will help to close the gap in s*x-based SCI research and make a real difference to those living with SCI.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our much loved and cherished Cure Crusader Ambassador, Kurt Drysdale.

His cheeky grin and kind, caring personality brought so much joy to everyone who knew him. He will be greatly missed by all of us at the Foundation.

We extend our heartfelt condolences his parents, Sonya and Steve, his family, and everyone who loved him during this incredibly difficult time.

May he rest in peace 🤍
