After contracting polio at the age of 28, Robin Cavendish is confined to a bed and given only months to live. With help from his wife Diana and her twin brothers, and the groundbreaking ideas of inventor Teddy Hall, Cavendish emerges from the hospital ward and devotes the rest of his life to helping fellow patients and the disabled.

The Neurological Foundation is an independent body and charitable trust that raises funds from donations to fund top neuroscientists and clinicians in New Zealand so they can continue their world class research into neurological conditions.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
