|  Marrianne
Rooprai is the inspiration behind the 'Rooprai Spinal Trust'.
It's hoped that Marrianne's strength and determination
will give others hope and that her dealings with 'spinal injury'
will educate others blissfully unaware of the suffering that could
happen to anyone.
Prior to June 13th 2004, Marrianne was a fun loving,
bubbly 27 year old with her whole life in front of her. Marrianne
had started her own hospitality business in Hertfordshire with her
partner Andrew and had spent the last 12 months making contact with
sporting events throughout the world.
On June 13th 2004 Marrianne, was paralysed from
the shoulders down. Today Marrianne’s strive for recovery
continues. A true inspiration for us all.
Trust Objectives
The Rooprai Spinal Trust has one major goal. That
goal is to help as many people as possible that have been affected
by spinal injury.
In order to achieve this goal the trustees, the trust
manager and everybody associated with RST have drawn up a list of
objectives they wish to achieve. It is important to realise that
the trust is very much in its infancy, as we grow so too will our
hopes and aspirations.
- The trust will supply ‘scholarships’ to successful
applicants for a variety of reasons. To begin with the scholarships
will be based on financing equipment that will make people with
spinal injuries lives easier. As the trust grows, the scholarships
will broaden and allow those who wish to do so, to follow Marrianne’s
recovery path.
- RST will be providing financial support to ‘The Osborn
Spinal Unit’. It is hoped our support will help make the
lives of future patients easier.
- RST will support other charities in their quest to find a cure
for paralysis. After all we all have one common goal. We are in
negotiations with a globally recognised foundation based in America.
We hope to work together and bring their support to our shores….We
will keep you posted.
- Marrianne is very much the inspiration for RST. Without Marrianne
the trust wouldn’t exist. We plan to use Marrianne as an
ambassador for RST. Marrianne will be at the forefront in the
fight against paralysis. Any success Marrianne finds will be passed
on for others.
