When, aged 23, Steve Brown fell from a balcony and dislocated a neck vertebra, squashing the spinal cord, he couldn’t have dreamed he would end up presenting TV shows.
The accident left him with little or no level of movement below the breastbone, but he was determined not to be defined by his injury.
After taking up wheelchair rugby he was asked to commentate on the Invictus Games for the BBC, then worked for Channel 4 at the Rio Paralympics and has since presented on The One Show and Countryfile, where he can indulge his great passion for wildlife.
So he was delighted to be asked to join the judging panel for our annual wildlife photography contest, alongside our judge emeritus Sir David Suchet, Kelly Brook, TV zoologist Lucy Cooke and head judge Clare Balding, plus our two technical judges Gray Levett and Simon Stafford.
