On the 11th of January 2011 I was out training on my bike when I was hit head on by a car. I suffered head injuries along with a double compound fracture of my right arm.

The Air Ambulance came to my rescue and flew me to Walsgrave Hospital, where I had four operations and was in for a week.

The service is full of miracle workers, but each flight costs £1400 and it is this which I am trying to raise so someone else might be as fortunate as I was.
