Richard suffered horrific injuries in 2010 while on active service in Afghanistan. He lost both legs and suffered extensive injuries to his torso and an arm. He does not allow his injuries to get in the way of living a full and active life, including championing the cause of injured soldiers and campaigning successfully for soldiers to have the right to have their sperm frozen before tours of duty. He is a dignified, brave and inspirational man.
