We help people with spinal cord injury to transform their lives

Story

At the beginning of July I will be undertaking the 8 mile trek up Mount Snowdon.  

This sounds pretty easy, but the challenge is that one of our team members is a wheelchair user and as a team of 15 we have to walk, run, push, pull,  climb and wheel to the summit and back down again covering a variety of mixed terrain.

It is a challenge of determination and teamwork, where we hope to raise as much money as possible for a really worth while charity which supports people who's lives have literally been changed in a second.

The team is made up of friends and family members of my good friend Joe Gadd who has been in a wheelchair for 4 years now.  We were working together in America when Joe had the horse riding accident which has left him paralysed. 

I am very proud of him as a friend because he has overcome so much and has embraced his new way of life, and when he asked me if I wanted to be part of the challenge there was no question about it. 

The money raised is going to the charity Back Up.  Back Up's services include wheelchair skills training, activity courses and mentoring, as well as support in getting back to work or school after an injury.  They work with people of all ages.  All of their services are designed to help build confidence and independence and are proven to make a significant difference to the rehabilitation process.

Any donation will be greatly appreciated, and thank you in advanced.
