Ian had a background in Risk Management and Human Resources before receiving his injuries. In order to provide support and advice for others in a similar situation in 1998 he founded the charity Action on Pain which has now become a well-regarded organisation stretching across Europe and beyond.
A few minutes some 20 years ago changed my life for ever. Trying to prevent a robbery left me critically injured and fighting for life – a broken back, shattered ankles and head injuries led to many operations, nine months in hospital followed by 12 months in a rehabilitation centre as my battered body fought to recover.
