A consultant from the RUH who sustained a life-changing spinal cord injury after a catastrophic fall from a bike in New Zealand, is taking on a new challenge for one of the charities that helped turn his life around.
Adam Malin was left paralysed from the chest down after the accident, which happened just weeks before the 2020 pandemic. He has been helped by several charities including The Back Up Trust, which provides mentoring for newly injured people. It offers multi-sport activity courses and opportunities to learn everything from travel tips to navigating daily challenges.
Adam has now become a mentor for the charity and on the 26th September he is planning to ride on the Back Up Trusts’ London to Paris Cycle Ride – a distance of approximately 450 km ( 100 miles a day). He says “I want to help more people with spinal cord injuries rediscover what is possible.” Follow the link if you’d like to support Adam on his fund-raising adventure.
