Esmée Gummer was left paralysed from the waist down after a surgery at the age of 18. She gradually learned to walk again, which later led her to discover a passion for running. Gummer completed a 5,000-km journey across the UK and Ireland, running for 99 consecutive days. As part of her initiative, she organized 76 inclusive running clubs that welcomed nearly 6,700 participants.
