SCI injuries in the news

In the last week, the UK press has reported widely on a 13-year-old schoolboy, Filip Cegar, who has re-learned to walk after breaking his back in a sledging accident

Filip broke his back and breastbone after a sledging accident near Aberdeen that took place in December 2022. Surgeons at the Royal Aberdeen Children's Hospital (RACH) realigned his spine and fixed his spinal cord in place to prevent any further damage. 

Filip made a positive recovery after swift medical intervention. Seven months on, Filip is intending to travel to Paris shortly to climb up to the second level of the Eiffel Tower to raise money for the hospital and The Archie Foundation charity.
