Spinal Cord Injury has a devastating effect on the 1,200 people who become paralysed each year.
The individual affected will lose muscle and sensory control and the vast majority become full time wheelchair users for the rest of their lives. Historically, the majority of spinal cord injuries have been sustained by those aged 15 to 40, with men outnumbering women, although increasingly it is affecting more older people too.
Through its projects and programmes, Aspire offers practical support to the 40,000 people living with a spinal cord injury in the UK so that they can lead fulfilled and independent lives in their homes, with their families, in work-places and leisure time.

CAFE will build on the excellent work started by NADS in the UK. NADS worked alongside UEFA and host stadia, for EURO 2008 and the 2008 and 2009 Champions League Finals, advising on improved facilities and services. Significant improvements have included: additional wheelchair-user spaces and amenity seating for disabled football supporters, audio-described commentary for partially sighted and blind supporters, accessible toilets and refreshment areas, team dedicated disabled liaison officers at each match, accessible transport and taxi drop-off points. CAFE means to bring about such changes at all stadia and all games in Europe (all 53 UEFA associations).
More and more disabled supporters want to travel to UEFA matches and tournaments; as provisions improve, they will feel they can attend major tournaments like EURO 2012 alongside their fellow supporters.
