June is Scoliosis Awareness Month!

Scoliosis is a condition that causes the spine to curve sideways and early detection can make a real difference to outcomes for patients and their families.

This month we're shining a light on this important condition and the research being done across the UK, including Belfast, to help improve treatment options:

🌟 A very special mention for a very special man 🌟

This year's TORC Sponsored Walk 2026 was extra special because it marked our 25th Anniversary of the Walk! And no one embodies that milestone more than Stevie.

25 years ago, Stevie had life-changing hip surgery at Musgrave Park Hospital. Since then, he has been a familiar and much-loved face at the TORC Walk with his incredible singing and music 🎵

To have Stevie with us this past Sunday, on this very special 25th anniversary walk made the day even more meaningful.

Thank you, Stevie. Here's to you and to many more years walking together! 🙌
