At age 44, Nigel had served in the Royal Air Force (RAF) for over 26 years. A career option point would allow him to leave the RAF and retire with a lump sum of money and a small, immediate pension. This presented Nigel and his young family with an opportunity to do something different with their lives. There were lots of things to consider before making any life changing decisions, and any decision would need to be a unanimous family one. However, no one could have predicted what was about to unfold on the family, the changes that would ensue, the challenges and dilemmas that Nigel faced and the decisions he was forced to make.

A story of perseverance, resilience, and a will to create opportunities irrespective of the circumstances.
