Neurokinex opens dedicated space for activity-based rehabilitation

Neurokinex Charitable Trust, the UK’s leading provider of activity-based rehabilitation for people living with paralysis, has opened a dedicated children’s space at its Bristol site.

The purpose-built space is designed to transform rehabilitation for children with spinal cord injuries, neurological conditions and other causes of paralysis. The expansion has been made possible thanks to the generous support of The Toy Trust, the charitable arm of the British Toy & Hobby Association, which funds projects that help disadvantaged and disabled children to play and experience joy. Neurokinex received a grant, enabling the centre to create this vibrant, child-friendly environment.

Neurokinex Kids has already supported 270 children nationwide and helped more than 20 at Bristol. In 2025, the Bristol team delivered 334 hours of paediatric rehab, nearly three times as many as the 121 hours they delivered in 2024. The rising demand for its services comes from young clients living with a wide range of conditions including cerebral palsy, spinal stroke, spinal cord injury, transverse myelitis, spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and arteriovenous malformation (AVM). The new space allows Neurokinex to expand its specialist services and meet the increasing need for scientifically proven, community-based rehab for children living with paralysis and neurological conditions.
