A SMALL PART OF WHO HE IS

Knox is an inspiration to everyone who knows him

Knox is 10 years old and had his right arm amputated when he was 3 years old after a traumatic accident with a lawn mower. Knox does not let his disability hold him back and is very active. He loves to play a variety of sports including rugby, soccer and cricket, and recently obtained his official classification for swimming. Knox is very confident and not self-conscious at all, he accepts that his limb difference is just a small part of who he is. He has such a positive attitude and is willing to give anything a go. Knox is an inspiration to everyone who knows him, and he is not treated differently to any of his friends, as nobody views him as having a disability.
