Ciaran served in the Coldstream Guards. He lost his leg in an IED blast in Afghanistan. He has since been crowned a world champion bodybuilder. He has since become not only the British champ, but also the best in the world. 🏆🏆 We are proud to have supported him!

Brilliant Dad and Daughter night at the @TowerOfLondon for the Ceremony of the Keys. Fascinating that the tradition still lives on today with all the pomp and ceremony that goes with it. Great event hosted by @Blesma and @RAFAssociation raising funds for two fantastic charities

Great to see injured Ukrainian veterans getting ready to run the @LondonMarathon Since the start of the war over 60,000 Ukrainian troops have lost limbs. This Sunday, they will run together to raise funds for rehabilitation and advanced prosthetics.

Gregg was 19 when he joined the Royal Engineers. He was on a tour of duty in Afghan when he stepped on an IED. He ended up losing both his legs in the blast. Now the Blesma Member has the Paris Paralympics in his sight. We are proud to support him along his journey 🇬🇧

Setting goals - that's the secret to getting yourself up and out of bed when times are tough and it feels like the world is closing in. Set those incremental targets to aim for each day 🦾 🎥 @Blesma , The Limbless Veterans #GoalSetter

Toby served in the Royal Marines and then the Special Forces. His life changed in an instant when he was shot through the neck during a mission in Afghanistan. "Life is precious, and I was lucky enough to be given a second chance. I'm trying to make the most of it now."
