Scope is the disability organisation in England and Wales whose focus is people with cerebral palsy. Their aim is that disabled people achieve equality: a society in which they are as valued and have the same human and civil rights as everyone else. SIA are the national organisation of spinal cord injured people representing all their interests regardless of how the impairment occurred, whether or not it has resulted in full or partial paralysis. SIA support all those who are affected by spinal cord injury, including the family and friends of the disabled person. Their motto 'because life needn't stop when you're paralysed' signifies the strong emphasis SIA places on leading a full and independent life after injury. The sharing of information and experience is at the heart of SIA's commitment to helping each individual achieve his or her potential after injury.
