The purpose of Aspire is to support the 105,000 people living with spinal cord injury in the UK.
Through its projects and programs, Aspire offers practical support, to newly injured spinal cord injury patients in hospitals and throughout their lives. This support allows people with spinal injuries to lead fulfilled and independent lives in their homes, with their families, in their workplaces, and in their leisure time.
Sciences Po is a unique research university based on critical thinking. In 1872, the École libre des sciences politiques was founded with the ambition to train enlightened citizens and free, independent leaders capable of considered action. 150 years later, this founding ambition continues to inform Sciences Po’s vision.
