Hi I’m Drew I’ve worked as a chef from a young age as I grew up in the catering and hospitality industry , I joined the royal marines and was discharged with fractured hips as a result of an accident on a training exercise
After my discharge I was suffering with depression , anxiety anger and alcohol issues as well as struggling to adapt and let go of the military lifestyle as well as struggling to find my place with what to do for a career after discharge
VetRun180 were fantastic as part of my physical and mental recovery and gave me an unbelievable opportunity to come along to Sweden on an arctic expedition which really was a turning point in my life
Since then I have been out with the team as a member to cook for the group and it’s beneficiaries and is to watch so many develop and benefit amazing as I did
I’m thankfully now a chef and jnr team leader for VetRun180 with a clear mind , healthy life style and bond with my family and friends as well as having new goals which I now can focus fully on
