Living life as an elective amputee for CRPS

ABOUT ME

I’m an Army veteran, Ex NHS nurse, and a below-knee amputee facing three chronic pain conditions: CRPS, Fibromyalgia, and nerve issues, leading to over 20 surgeries. Three years ago, I had my leg amputated due to CRPS, which returned, rendering me wheelchair-dependent, facing constant pain levels of 8/10, escalating to 10+.

Despite these challenges, I've accomplished significant feats in sports.

My journey, despite physical challenges, serves as a testament to overcoming the seemingly impossible. I hope to motivate others to surpass their perceived limitations.

MY ACHIEVEMENTS

In 2022, I broke world records for the fastest half and full marathons using a non-sport wheelchair, raising £1600 for Blesma limbless veterans.

In 2023, I achieved two new world records. First for the furthest distance covered in 12 hours using a wheelchair, raising £3448 for the Aaron Lewis Foundation. Second, for the Bath half marathon completed in October.

I am one of only a few people in the world who do this sort of thing and the only female who raises money for charity that we know of.

MY CURRENT CHALLENGE

Prepare to be amazed by the sheer magnitude of this journey! I will be wheeling in a standard day to day wheelchair over 1,400km from John O’Groats to Land’s End. This will be the equivalent of 35 marathons for 35 days. To find out more information, check out the website www.end2end.org.uk
