Arthur Williams: My life through a lens!

Arthur was brought up in Eckington, South Worcestershire. He became a Royal Marines Commando in 2004 after passing the rigorous training required and was awarded the King's Badge. Being posted to 42 Commando, Lima Company in Plymouth, Arthur spent 18 months as a general duties Marine before specialising in signals and joining 6 Assault Squadron on board HMS Albion.
In 2007 when returning to duty from leave in Pershore Arthur's car went off the road – an accident that severed his spinal cord and left him paralysed from the waist down. Arthur returned to the Marines but later left in 2009.

Williams has featured on numerous television programmes as a presenter or guest, particularly for Channel 4. He has also presented documentaries on aviation and military history.
Arthur is a keen pilot, having taken up the hobby – a childhood dream of his – after leaving the Marines. He learnt to fly through the disabled flying charity Aerobility. He holds both a National and International Private Pilot's licence.

The event will have a pay bar and there will be a door charge of £10 that will all go to charity, split between Aerobility and Colwall Rotary's local charities fund.
