<div>At just 19 years old, my life changed forever. On 13 January 2010, whilst serving in
</div>
<div>Helmand Province, Afghanistan, I was hit by an improvised explosive device
</div>
<div>whilst sweeping for mines. In an instance, everything went black. When I woke
</div>
<div>up a week later, in intensive care, I learned I had lost both my legs, a thumb, and
</div>
<div>parts of my fingers. My body was covered in shrapnel. Over the following months
</div>
<div>I underwent more than 20 operations and began the long road to recovery at
</div>
<div>Headley Court, the Army’s rehabilitation centre.
</div>
<div>Cycling became my turning point, a lifeline that gave me purpose again. It was a
</div>
<div>way to push my limits, rebuild my confidence, and reconnect with the person I
</div>
<div>was before the blast. I discovered hand cycling in 2017 and instantly fell in love
</div>
<div>with the sport. Since then, I have dedicated myself to hand cycling, training, and
</div>
<div>challenging what’s possible.
</div>
<div>Today, as a British hand cyclist, I’m driven by the same determination that got
</div>
<div>me through my recovery, to go faster, work harder, and inspire others to
</div>
<div>overcome adversity. My journey is about proving that no matter what happens,
</div>
<div>You can always move forward
</div>
