Founded 25 years ago

50% of the funds raised by THE SPINE TINGLING RIDE go to SpinalCure Australia

SpinalCure Australia was founded 25 years ago with the sole aim of finding a cure for spinal cord injury through the promotion and funding of medical research.

SpinalCure is Australia’s premier nationally operating NFP funding spinal cord injury research, and are;

  • Committed to making a cure for spinal cord injury not only achievable but available.

  • Funding breakthrough technologies, data, and creative thinking.

  • Supporting those who question the old science and embrace the new.

  • Collaborating with powerful partners who share our bold vision.

  • Investing in results and for maximum impact.

After decades of dashed hope, we are finally seeing real outcomes in this area and these advances have brought us to a time when the cure is no longer a matter of IF, it is now a matter of WHEN.

People who have been told they would never have control of their basic bodily functions are beginning to regain their dignity, independence and joy. And it is up to us to make sure that all those with spinal cord injuries who have been given brutal ultimatums about what their futures would hold, have a chance to experience this new reality.
