7/7 Bombings – A Paramedic’s Story from the Front Line | Part 2: Adam Desmond


Listen Later

In Part 2 of our 20 year anniversary series on the 7/7 London bombings, paramedic Adam Desmond shares his deeply personal and unflinchingly honest account of responding to the attacks at King's Cross.

Speaking with WEM’s Eoin Walker, Adam reflects on the chaos, the human cost, and the enduring psychological impact of working at the heart of one of the UK’s worst terrorist attacks. From navigating trauma in the underground tunnels to confronting system breakdowns and personal grief, this conversation is a vital listen for anyone working in emergency response, healthcare, or disaster medicine.
