Upcoming & Recent Events
Mark recently took part in the Whitstable Toy Run. This event is held in order to help disadvantaged children during challenging times in their lives. The aim of the event was to appeal to buy Christmas gifts for children who are going through challenging times.
Mark successfully completed a 4.5-mile countryside walk while testing his new lower limb prosthetic sockets. Impressively, he navigated the terrain without walking sticks and maintained his balance throughout.
Congratulations to Mark on this significant achievement!
Mark is prepared to hit the road again to support those in need. His customised vehicle will enable him to travel to more distant locations and provide vital services offered by the charity.
Mark and Beverley from the charity have hit the road again. They recently attended a bike show to spotlight and raise awareness for amputees. During the event, they met some wonderful people and shared information about ATSGUK and how the charity supports those in need.
During his daily travels, Mark from the charity met a delightful lady. He spent some time with her, explaining the assistance the charity offers. They are now in regular contact, working towards getting her the support she needs.
We are excited to announce that Mark recently participated in the LimbPower Games and Exercise Event held in Aylesbury. This event embodies camaraderie, adventure, and inclusivity, offering a vibrant space for people of all abilities to explore adapted sports and fitness activities. Check out below to see some of the sports Mark took part in.
We have been working hard with hospitals around the country in order to ensure that patients get to benefit from our services.
Due to the continued hard work and dedication from the team, we are now in a number of new hospitals and are working with them to provide trauma patients our services. This is a great benefit to patients given that all our volunteers have previously experienced major trauma.
We appreciate that hospitals are struggling due to cut backs over the years. We hope that our services help the hospitals to provide support to trauma patients as well as helping the patients themselves. We regularly work alongside ward managers and senior personnel in order to deliver our services.
Our services have helped a number of patients who are now members of our Facebook group. Our support has assisted these patients in having a more positive outlook on life and allowed them to realise that the required support is available to them.
We are pleased to announce that we have recently started providing our services in hospitals in the South East and the Midlands.
Mark and Beverly from our charity attended the British Human Powered Club Race Event.
Mark entered the event using his hand cycle. The event participants included some ex forces personnel.
These events allow us to inspire individuals who are dealing with their own trauma.
