Spinal injury patients to get design trainingRSS Feed
A programme designed for spinal injury sufferers to learn design has been launched by the Royal Society of Arts (RSA).
The Design and Rehabilitation programme will run workshops up and down the country aimed at teaching patients design skills to help them become more independent and confident.
Designers will hold presentations which will provide patients with a basic introduction to design concepts and this will be followed by a three-day workshop, with the ultimate aim being to get some people using the skills learned to apply these in business or in a job.
RSA's Director of Design Emily Campbell said: "People trained in design are practised in solving problems and they have methods and tools and tips that everyone can use.
"The RSA believes that these methods and tools and tips can help to rebuild confidence after severe and life-changing injury."
Workshops will be held at all 11 of the UK and Ireland's spinal injury centres.
Meanwhile, one of the centres involved, the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (RNOH), is gearing up for its annual Buttercup Walk in June, which hopes to raise money for the hospital.
