From Barbados to the UK: Corie Mapp's Journey of Resilience and Triumph to Para Bobsleigh Champion

Corie Mapp shares his extraordinary journey of resilience, determination, and triumph. A young man from Barbados who dared to chase his dreams and overcame immense challenges along the way.
In this inspiring video, Corie shares his initial pursuit of a better life in the United Kingdom, where he strived and realized his childhood dream of serving in the prestigious Queens Escort of Color and joining the Household of Cavalry Regiment. However, fate had a different plan in store for him when he tragically lost both his legs while serving in the Afghanistan war.
Against all odds, Corie refused to let adversity define him. With unyielding determination and inspiration from his daughters, wife, family, and friends, he rose above his physical limitations and discovered a new passion in the exhilarating sport of para bobsleigh.
