My name is Paul Felton and i have had my left leg removed below the knee in February 2013 after my ankle was crushed in a fall in April 2011 and multiple infections prevented it from heeling.

Concerned by the lack of support and help available to amputees in the region, i decided to turn what happened into a positive and setup the West Midlands Amputee Support Group to help people talk about their experiences and share advice on coping with losing a limb.
