Upon meeting the guys they were all very warm and friendly and we went over just what was going to happen during the course of the morning. They were fantastic guiding me through what needed to be done and offering lots of encouragement and reassuring me, making the tasks at hand easy to get on with.
I was very proud that I got great positive feedback on stuff I had shot, both photo and image wise. In fact Damian and Adam actually asked if they could copy some of my work over on to Adam's laptop as they may use it in doing the final news report.
Though very nervous about doing the interview (I'm not good in front of the camera) I felt it went well and was very pleased when Damian said it was spot on. I'm so thrilled to be actually able to get to thank those people and companies who have actually helped and supported me along the way and hope this kind of media stuff gives them a bit more recognition for the amazing work they do for others.
So in ending I would just like to say a huge thank you to Damian, Adam and David of the BBC. I really enjoyed meeting you all, your an excellent team and good to share a bit of banter with you.
And to those people and companies who have helped me so much over the past 5 years.
Pace Rehabilitation for your commitment and support when ever I have needed it.

We all enjoyed meeting you and your dad and your edited footage and music was excellent, as was evidenced by us stealing it to use in our piece!
Cheers

Hey pleased you enjoyed the footage, it's a real compliment when you have guys such as yourself give good positive feedback about the stuff I've been doing, so thanks for that Damian.
Getting some good messages coming in through Facebook, it's nice to see reports like this raising public awareness. I'm chuffed I got to thank those involved for all their support. Biggest support of course is from those unsung hero's my family and friends who have supported me all the way.
One member of our family who is not here to see this would have been very proud of you today son,and all that you have achieved as we all are.
Thanks dad :) x

Hi David it was on BBC's iPlayer but think it's off line now I will contact Damian at the BBC the news reporter and see if I can findout where I can maybe get a copy to upload.
