Once a healthy, well-trained surgeon, now using a walker for daily activities
Magnus Legert is a former elite tennis player who worked as an orthopaedic surgeon. Life, however, took an unexpected turn. From being a healthy 50-year-old, he now lives with ataxia and is highly dependent on a walker. Rehab is an important part of Magnus' everyday life and without good assistive devices, this wouldn't be possible. Here, he shares his story in the hope of helping more people achieve freedom of movement.

86-year-old veteran climbs Pen y Fan with a walker
Ian Waddell, who turned 86 on March 4, 2024, has severe osteoarthritis and can't walk without two crutches or his walker. "The cardiologist team told me the closest I should ever get to a mountain is looking at a picture of it," he said. But I told them, 'Well, I am doing it anyway.'" As a veteran or former Parachute Regiment Soldier, Ian loves the outdoors and doesn't want to become a person who stays at home and watches TV all day because of his condition.

During a race weekend in July 2015, the professional motorcycle racer Kenny Noyes had a nasty crash that almost killed him. He suffered a traumatic brain injury and was in a coma for over a month – but fortunately, woke up.

  • New lease of life…

    I am 84, and have a crooked spine as a result of a motor accident five years ago, which means that it is painful for me to hold myself upright. I had not been able to take my daily walk for the last few months, and I had been unable to stand and chat…

  • My brake pads came very quickly…

    I had asked my handyman, Derek, to deal with the pads for me.

    He did a good job, and I was thankful for it. I’m not able to walk for miles while taking my dog for a walk (maybe one mile) but, because I have my Veloped, it makes life a great deal e…
