Adrenaline junkie skis and surfs unscathed, then freak biking accident in local park paralyses him

An adrenaline junkie who has skied and surfed has been left paralysed by a freak mountain bike accident in a local park. Will Taylor has a passion for everything from skiing to surfing and has even cycled across Europe without ever breaking a bone.

But the 32-year-old suffered devastating injuries which would change his life forever while mountain biking in a local park earlier this year. Left paralysed from the neck down, Will is now facing the toughest challenge of his life - to get back movement in his body.

His devoted partner Alex Brown, 30, has helped raise £46K towards the £50K needed for the intensive specialist physiotherapy. The professional Bristol couple hope the treatment will give Will the best chance of regaining movement.
