This has been taken from the Scoliosis, Support and Research charity (formerly Scoliosis Association UK). They are launching a new initiative
Empowering workplaces, schools, and communities to take action for people living with scoliosis.
Join the movement supporting early detection, awareness, and better outcomes for scoliosis.
Our brand-new Back The Curve initiative makes it simple for businesses, workplaces, schools, clubs and community groups to get involved. Whether you want to host an awareness day, run a fundraiser, or share life-changing information, we’ve created everything you need.
What Is Back The Curve?
A simple, powerful way to create impact in your community.
Scoliosis affects millions across the UK, yet early signs are often missed. Back The Curvebrings people together to change that. Through events, awareness activities, fundraising, and school or workplace engagement, your organisation can make a real difference.
When you join the campaign, you’ll receive:
A free downloadable toolkit
Posters, social graphics & awareness materials
Ideas for events, activities & fundraising
Guidance for schools and youth groups
Templates for internal communications
Who Can Take Part?
Designed for all types of groups, big or small.
Back The Curve is open to:
Businesses & workplaces
Schools & colleges
Sports clubs & gyms
Community groups
Individuals and families
Participation is flexible — from a simple awareness poster to a full fundraising month.
Why It Matters
Your support leads to earlier detection — and better outcomes.
Early recognition of scoliosis can change lives. Many young people wait years for a diagnosis, leaving them without critical support. By raising awareness in your organisation, you help families, staff and students understand the signs, get help sooner, and feel less alone.
Your involvement supports:
National awareness efforts
Trusted information for families
Advocacy and research
Community outreach programmes
What’s Inside the Toolkit?
Everything you need to run your own Back The Curve campaign:
Posters & digital displays
School assembly slides
Fundraising ideas & event guides
Step-by-step activity plans
Email & newsletter templates
Educational materials
