Using wrestling as rehabilitation from sepsis

David Wellington from Stapleton spent 10 months in hospital with sepsis and is now starting to get back to the life he had before he was ill.

His rehabilitation has taken an unusual turn - he's using Olympic wrestling, taught by childhood friend Saeed Esmaili to help recover his mobility.

And on top of this - he's hoping to raise money for Saeed's project, Wrestling for Humanity, to help others like him recover.
