During the first year of his BSc (Hons) Mathematics with Economics degree at Herts, Ben Spires suffered a near-fatal brain haemorrhage that left him unable to walk or talk. His recovery would take years, and he had four goals he wanted to achieve: return to university, get a job, play football and drive again. Doctors said it would be impossible for him to achieve all these goals.

Ben spoke to Alex Best, Alumni Relations Officer at the University of Hertfordshire, about how his resilience, perseverance and self-belief helped return him to a normal life.
