A remarkable Harrogate man who lost his right leg in an horrific incident – but still rides a motorcycle with the Freemasons for charity - has talked about how his "eyes have been opened to the inequalities and challenges faced by disabled people".

Despite suffering life-changing injuries following a roadside accident almost a year ago, Andrew Simister not only rides with The Widows Sons, he is also charity trustee and President of the Widows Sons Ridings Chapter which combines a love of three things - Freemasonry, motorcycles and charity fundraising.

Last week saw Andrew and 19 motorcyclists from the chapter ride in convoy into Harrogate on a visit to Disability Action Yorkshire’s Claro Road facility in Harrogate.
