Phil Rogers, 33, has been weight training (weight loss program) since July, 2003 because he found it difficult to get by in his wheelchair. Due to his perserverance and drive, Phil has been honored by Freedom Leisure.
Phil said, 'I feel very happy about losing the weight.
'My health was going downhill. I was pushing the wheelchair all the time with my hands carrying all my weight.
'It was putting a strain on my heart.
'I could not push the chair very well because I would get tired easily.
'I was unable to go out.'
Congratulations Phil!
