‘Born without fully formed arms and legs, life has not stopped John. Following a law degree at Cambridge University John became a solicitor and practised as a litigator for 12 years. Subsequent moves included redeveloping the village of Papworth Everard, assisting a mental health social enterprise to leave the NHS, chairing the board of award-winning social enterprise Provide CIC and establishing a consultancy business. John was inspired through an able-bodied triathlon to promote sport for everyone and set up Power2inspire three years ago.’
