British Army soldier Lance Corporal Jack Silverwood of the Armed Forces Para Snow-Sport team is competing for the first time at the Inter Services snow sports championships at Meribel in the French Alps.

In 2019, he suffered a traumatic injury in Germany when he lost his arm, but now, he's at Meribel and aiming for more.

Speaking with Forces News, he said: "I jumped out of a tree in Germany into some water and on the way down, the rope caught my arm and just tore my arm off."
