Ed's nomination story

Edward was a very keen and talented tennis player and then about 18 months ago he developed a rare form of bone cancer and ended up having a below knee amputation. Edward has had lots of complications but always been inspirationally positive and humorous throughout and now plays wheelchair tennis. He was studying sports science at Sheffield University but he had to drop out earlier this year due to problems with his prosthetic limb, but he is intending to start again once his leg is properly sorted.
