A serious injury of any kind is life-changing. Every client is different and the way in which we need to help them overcome the challenges they face is unique.
Our clients’ stories of recovery
The aftermath of an injury can be a a daunting time for our clients and their families as they try to visualise what their future holds. Our role is to support our clients every step of the way in their Life Beyond Injury.
Some of the clients we have helped have decided to tell their personal stories of Life Beyond Injury. Each one of them has had to undergo their own journey of rehabilitation and adaptation and all have gone on to live full and active lives.
We hope you find inspiration from Evette, Gary, Nick, Kirsty, Josh and Dale’s stories.
They all demonstrate that there is Life Beyond Injury.

Evette’s story
Evette was injured at work, which resulted in her needing a below knee amputation. Living in the countryside with her animals, including horses, she was determined to maintain her active lifestyle. Evette was also active in the community and wanted to remain in her home so she could still live near her friends and family.

Gary’s story
Gary was a lorry driver who experienced an electric shock while working near power lines. As a result he required a below knee amputation. Having at first sought to return to the job he loved and the freedom it afforded, Gary has now dedicated himself to working on and driving stock cars. He now looks forward to helping the next generation of drivers.

Nick's story
Nick was injured while on his motorcycle, and sustained orthopaedic injuries and a severe brain injury. Nick and his mother share details of Nick’s determination to his treatment and rehabilitation after emerging from several months in a coma.

Kirsty's story
Kirsty was injured when concrete from a shopfront fell onto her while she was shopping in her local town. At the time of the incident, Kirsty was making plans for her wedding to fiancé Ben. She had to come to terms with her paralysis to enable her dream wedding to go ahead and plan their future together.

Josh's story
Josh was injured while carrying out his job at a climbing centre. He had always been passionate about climbing but, following his accident in which he sustained a spinal cord injury and subsequent right leg amputation, he wondered if he would climb again or even be able to lead a normal family life.

Dale's story
Dale was mistakenly shot on a training exercise whilst serving in the Army on the Falkland Islands. His military career was cut short and he faced the unenviable task of having to claim against his employer. With the help of new exo-skeleton walking technology, he wanted to try to walk again. Now Dale is looking forward to a different future.
