Against the odds walk of a lifetime

Available for over a year

When Will Baxter was 13, he was on a school trip when he suffered a sudden brain haemorrhage and went into a coma. He recovered but was left paralysed down the left side of his body and doctors told him he would probably need to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life. Eleven years later and he has just finished the Pacific Crest Trail, hiking on his own across deserts, forests and mountains from Mexico to Canada raising £13,000 for charity. He's been speaking to Âé¶¹Éç CWR Presenter Vic Minett.
