If ever you feel lacking a little inspiration - then one man may be able to remind you of how you can overcome any hurdles in business or life this week.

Hari Budha Magar - the first double above-knee amputee to summit Mount Everest - will conclude a UK tour at the Trinity Theatre in Tunbridge Wells on Friday.

And the key message from the former Gurkha, from Canterbury, who lost both his legs while serving in Afghanistan, will be how “mindset is everything in achieving dreams”.

It forms part of his No Legs No Limits talk - part of the Speakers from the Edge tour which showcases those who have achieved remarkable feats.

He reached the summit of Everest in 2023.

He said: “No mountain is too small. Every mountain brings its own challenges, but for me these are amplified with my disability.

“It’s about having the right mindset and adapting to the world around us.

“It’s been a long and hard journey since losing my legs in Afghanistan. There have been some really dark times. Yet with support from family, friends - with the help from some incredible charities and communities - and with a bucket load of grit and determination, I’ve had the chance to realise a childhood dream and make a real positive impact.

“Out of all of my achievements, helping others find their value and a place in this world, that’s been more rewarding than anything else.”

He is now aiming to climb the seven highest mountains on all seven continents.

Originally from Nepal, Hari served 15 years with the Royal Gurkha Rifles in the British Army. In 2010, he lost his legs in Afghanistan after stepping on an improvised explosive device.
