Nerys Pearce served in the British Army for four years, but it was while back in the UK that she was left paralysed from the chest down when a car reversed over her. Here, she tells her story.

The Resilience Sessions has been inspired by Making Generation R – a campaign which aims to create a generation of resilient people across the U.K. The series is brought to you by Blesma, the limbless veterans charity, and is based on an original idea by Simon Harmer and The Drive Project. The Resilience Sessions are supported by Openreach and produced by The Drive Project.
