Duncan Slater in Conversation with Victoria Bacon

After serving in the Royal Air Force for ten years in 2009, Duncan Slater was on duty in Afghanistan when the vehicle he was travelling in was blown up; his entire body was damaged, his legs suffering worst.

A year later he made the traumatic decision to have a double amputation.

Duncan is an amazing example of triumph over adversity; refusing to be defeated since getting his prosthetic legs he has travelled to the Arctic and across the Sahara, and has raised thousands of pounds for charity – including for other wounded veterans, and child amputees.

Victoria Bacon – who has herself done amazing work fundraising for amputees – introduces Duncan and asks him to tell his story in the latest of her insightful ‘In Conversation With…’ series.
