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.

Hello and welcome to JDHarris.co.uk,

We provide a range of innovative health, beauty and fitness products to UK and worldwide consumers. You will note we have a fairly limited range and this is deliberate because we find that, quite frankly, there is an awful lot of tat out there which you can buy but which is of very little use.

Each of the products we supply has been personally tested by us for quality and effectiveness. In addition, where there are competitor products available we test all those too in order to determine which product is the best combination of quality, effective product and good price.

We'd also like to hear from you.
