We help former
soldiers improve
their quality
of life.
Matt lives in Hampshire with his young
family. In 2009, in Afghanistan, he sustained
a long-term ankle injury when he risked his life
to save the platoon, which had come under attack
during an operation.
Unfortunately, due to complications that arose from
his injury, Matt was medically discharged in 2022
and had to have a below left knee amputation.
We were there to support him when he needed help
and provided £1,000 towards the cost of an electrical
adjustable bed to improve his quality of life and aid
recovery. Matt now works as a head mechanic for
a local company and is keeping the same positive
spirit that he demonstrated throughout his 17-year
Army career.
