Success stories

What changes when support arrives on time

Names are published with consent. Every story below is linked to a funded programme and a reported outcome.

Lisbon, Portugal

Maya, 34

Two years after my SCA 3 diagnosis I could not cross a room alone. The rehab scholarship gave me twelve weeks of balance work. I walked my daughter to school last week.

Twelve weeks of specialist balance and gait therapy, funded through the Neuro-Rehab Scholarships campaign.

Manchester, UK

Daniel, 58

The mobility fund fitted my home with rails and a rollator in under a month. I stopped falling. That is not a small thing when you live by yourself.

Home assessment, grab rails, threshold ramps and a fitted rollator delivered in 26 days.

Toronto, Canada

The Okafor family

Respite hours meant my mother could sleep and I could finish my degree. Someone finally saw the carers too.

180 respite hours, six counselling sessions and a place in a monthly peer circle.
