On the precipice of starting her adult life, aged eighteen, Sophie, a rebellious and incorrigible wild child, crashed her car and was instantly paralysed from the chest down. Rushed to hospital, everything she had dreamed for her life was instantly forgotten and her journey to rediscover herself and build a different life began. But being told she would never walk again would come to be the least of her concerns.
Over the next eighteen years, as she strived to come to terms with the change in her body, her relationships were put to the test; she has had to learn to cope with the many unexpected and unpredictable setbacks of living with paralysis; she has had to overcome her own and other people''s perceptions of disability and explore the limits of her abilities, all whilst searching for love, acceptance, meaning, identity, and purpose.
Driving Forwards is a remarkable and powerful memoir, detailing Sophie''s life-changing injury, her recovery, and her life since. Strikingly honest, her story is unusual and yet relatable, inspiring us to see how adversity can be channelled into opportunity and how ongoing resilience can ultimately lead to empowerment.
''Raw, life affirming and gorgeously written - this book is filled with extraordinary honesty, courage and warmth. Sophie''s words will make us all braver and more hopeful.'' Daisy Buchanan
''A truly astonishing read about the power of never giving up.'' Sun
''F***king hell!! This book is absolutely brilliant . . . One of the best memoirs I''ve ever read. Honest and so blooming human, it''s fantastic.'' Kathy Burke
