Further information

Josh Dueck was an aspiring skier and coach until a ski accident in 2004 changed his life for good.

After coming to the realization that he would never walk again, Josh made a conscious decision to make the best of a terrible situation. Within 1 year he was back on snow doing what he loved, and shortly after, his determination took him to the top of the podium in the sport of sit-skiing.

Despite his success in the world of competitive skiing, he wasn't satisfied as a skier. Josh's dream is to tackle the backcountry, and the steepest and wildest mountains in the world. In ‘The Freedom Chair’, it's a dream fulfilled.

Co-presented by Josh himself and legendary Filmmaker Mike Douglas, the Kendal audience get a unique insight into the making of this multi-award winning film, the life of a paralympic athlete and behind the scenes stories from this multi-award winning Film.  Not to be missed!

The film will be shown in its' entirety.
