Help make the impossible possible
Everyone deserves the best chance of recovery. Yet, for too long people living with paralysis were told recovery isn’t possible. Today, that is no longer the case. Right now, a new therapy, the ARC-EX spinal stimulation therapy, is showing that restoring function and movement is possible in ways many people were once told it never could be.were once told it never could be.
Wear your ribbon and share a powerful message
When you wear our first-ever ribbon, you share a powerful message. Spinal cord injury must be seen. Research must move faster. And people affected by paralysis should have quicker access to treatments.
That is why we launched the Spinal Research Recovery Alliance last year. This powerful movement brings you, researchers, clinicians, companies developing new treatments, and other people affected by paralysis together around one shared ambition: to accelerate research and the delivery of more new treatments. Will you wear a ribbon and show your support?

"Spinal Research is funding the most promising research into spinal cord injury which makes me believe that a cure for paralysis is possible. Even having more movement in my arms would give me the freedom to achieve everyday tasks independently, such as using my laptop and feeding myself. I know that with the research, this will one day be possible." – Bel
Wear a ribbon for the future you want to make possible
Our community is coming together to wear this special ribbon. They’re wearing it to show what they most want to make possible – for themselves, in support of a family member or friend, in memory of a loved one, or for everyone affected by paralysis. Join in to show your support.
“I’m wearing this ribbon because “impossible” should never be the final word."
"After my spinal cord injury, I was given a future that looked very different from the life I live today. I know what it feels like when one movement, one step, one tiny piece of independence can mean everything. That’s why I support Spinal Research. Because research can turn hope into possibility, possibility into recovery, and one day, what we call impossible today into something completely ordinary tomorrow. I was fortunate enough to defy a prognosis. I want science to make that possibility available to everyone.” – Rae
