The Inaugural Amputee Games

by wendy

The Inaugural Amputee Games was held in June and proved to be an enormous success. David, who lost his leg (above knee) in 1974 is also paralysed from the waist down and uses a wheelchair for his sports, and Kiera, who lost her leg in a RTA eight years ago and now walks and plays sport using a prosthesis, first met in 2006 whilst attending a seminar run by the British Paralympic Association at Bisham Abbey. They got chatting over a meal, the idea of the Games was born and David says they never looked back.
