Steven Gilmore, known as Gilly, suffered a serious accident on November 29, 2021, while working as a scaffolder. A scaffold tube he was lifting hit an overhead power line, sending 48,000 volts through his body, causing him to fall from a height and suffer severe electrical burns, particularly to his hands and arms, with extensive tissue damage. He also sustained bruised lungs and a blood clot in his leg.
Since the accident, Steven has been in the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital’s critical burns unit, undergoing multiple surgeries, including a six-hour procedure to address his burns and injuries. His recovery is expected to be long and challenging, both physically and mentally.
