Andy Reid MBE is a former Corporal of the 3rd Battalion Yorkshire Regiment and a prominent motivational speaker based in the United Kingdom. In 2009, while serving in Afghanistan, he suffered life-changing injuries after stepping on an IED, resulting in the loss of his right arm and both legs. Remarkably, he made a swift recovery, spending only two weeks in the hospital before returning home.
Reid has since become an inspiring figure, sharing his story of resilience and determination. He is the author of the autobiography "Standing Tall," which chronicles his journey and the challenges he has overcome. In 2022, he made history as the first triple amputee to successfully climb Mount Kilimanjaro on prosthetic legs.
His accolades include being awarded an MBE for his services to veterans and people with disabilities, winning The Sun's Millie Award for Overcoming Adversity in 2010, and receiving the Pride of St Helens Courage Award in 2022. Additionally, he co-founded the Standing Tall Foundation, which focuses on supporting mental and physical well-being.
As a speaker, Andy Reid addresses topics such as self-belief, goal setting, and overcoming adversity, making him a sought-after keynote speaker for corporate and public engagements. His powerful presentations resonate with audiences, encouraging them to embrace challenges and strive for personal growth.
