Philip Bousfield had spent most of his life suffering with the crippling pain of a club foot and since he was an infant, had numerous operations in a bid to put a stop to his agony. In 2013, he decided an amputation might be his best option to improve his quality of life. After his operation he joined North Wales Crusaders and was selected to play for Wales after just five months of playing. He went on to become one of the world's first wheelchair boxers and has also taken part in jujitsu and has cycled for charity, using a prosthetic leg. Professionally, he works for Options Autism supporting children, young people and adults who require specialist support.
