A huge thank you must go to Shine’s Health Team and our Health Advisory Panel who, between them, spent many hours writing, reviewing and quality assuring the information. And of course, a thank you to all the Shine Members who responded to our survey and shared so much about their lives and the effects of living with spina bifida.
