Spring is in the air!
Spring is finally in the air! The sun is shining; the birds are chirping, what better time to relax in the garden with the latest issue of Forward magazine?
With the birds returning for spring, it was the perfect time to interview BirdLife International’s chief scientist Stuart Butchart. Stuart has an incredible story, sustaining his SCI after being shot while travelling in Guatemala. He talks to us about birdwatching, his career in conservation, the story of his injury and much, much more. It’s one not to be missed!
And Stuart is just one of the many people we have been lucky enough to interview for our spring issue. We also spoke to Casey Gemma who, after sustaining her SCI through a cycling accident, is now a yoga, self-love and nutrition teacher. She talks to us about body image and how you can learn to accept and love your body again after SCI.
Adapting your home after SCI can be a daunting prospect. We’ve spoken to experts who offer tips and advice alongside real life stories of home adaptations from SCI people who’ve made their living spaces more accessible and function better for them since their injuries.
