After injuring his knee, London firefighter Mark Watson had to take time off and undergo surgery. We caught up with him at Marine Court. During a friendly rugby game between London Fire Brigade and Cornwall Fire and Rescue Service, Peter suffered a neck injury that required surgery. Here he talks about the difference the Charity made in helping him get back to work. Lisa Langley was finally pain free and eager to move forward with a new found confidence after two weeks at Marine Court. After breaking his ankle in three places, Paul got back on his feet with the help of the Charity. A career firefighter who was paralysed following the removal of a tumour on his spine, Graham Murray was helped at home by the Charity.
