My guest for this episode is former Conservative MP Craig Mackinlay - one of the most resilient and courageous individuals we’ve had the privilege to talk to on this podcast. In September 2023 Craig contracted a severe and sudden case of sepsis, leading to all four of his limbs being amputated. What followed was the most inspiring journey of acceptance, recovery and positivity. Craig has used his experience and recent elevation to the House of Lords, to raise awareness about sepsis and the poor availability of NHS prosthetics. Craig has an incredibly positive attitude, never dwelling on what he can’t do and instead rejoicing in what he can. I hope you enjoy this inspirational conversation and my thanks to Craig who invited us into his home to record this episode.
