Joe started his medical journey in Southport Hospital in 1997 and was transferred to The Walton Centre in 1998 where a brain tumour was diagnosed for the start of a long journey. One part of that journey was to learn to walk again. Over the years Joe has had many obstacles to climb but has managed to overcome them all.
