EVERY Eight Hours is a new website dedicated to highlighting the life-changing effects of spinal cord injuries.
First launched in May to coincide with spinal cord injuries awareness day, the website features case studies from a variety of people struck down with such injuries and fully explains the devastating impacts it has had on their lives.
Among these is 14-year-old Daniel, who was only four when a car accident on holiday with his family left him completely paralysed from the waste down.
Also mentioned is former media highflyer Melanie, whose life changed forever 17 years ago when she suffered spinal injuries in a motorcycle collision.
Visitors to the site – so named because someone in the UK becomes spinal cord injured on average every eight hours – can access a host of fellow charities dedicated to the cause, including Aspire, Spinal Research and Back Up.
There are also links to the Every Eight Hours Facebook and Twitter pages, alongside information about donating to the campaign.
