World SCI Day – 5th Sept – listen to Nick Morris OAM

World SCI Day, initiated by the International Spinal Cord Society (ISCoS), occurs annually on 5 September. On World SCI Day, we raise awareness of SCI, its causes and prevention, its impact on quality of life, and of course the research that is being undertaken to improve health and social outcomes for people with SCI.

This year, the theme of World SCI Day is ‘Fall Prevention, Spinal Cord Protection’ and the focus is on fall prevention both within the spinal cord injury community and the population generally. Falls can occur anywhere to anyone, however for those living with SCI, the consequences of falls, even less serious ones, can be much greater.

To mark World SCI Day 2025, SRI Ambassador and Paralympian Nick Morris OAM was interviewed on the House of Wellness radio program. Listen to the interview (6 mins).
