A FORMER police officer and fireman who lost a leg while on duty is making a wheelchair trek in the South Atlantic to raise cash for charities.
Swasie Turner, aged 61, will push his wheelchair 70 miles across the Falkland Islands and present a goodwill message from the Lord Mayor of Liverpool.
All cash raised will go to charities on Merseyside and the Falklands.
