THE STORY BEHIND BACK ON TRACK

Back on Track is the brainchild of Dr. Aamer Khan and his wife, Lesley Reynolds, who founded The Harley Street Skin Clinic.

For some time now, they have been quietly working with injured servicemen and women, particularly in the field of skin injuries, to help them regain the confidence to face the world again, and when they discovered that several of the servicemen were passionate about karting they devised an event which would both be a lot of fun plus could help to raise funds to help them continue racing. Thus Back on Track was born in 2014 and it is fair to say that it was an immediate success.

The Harley Street Skin Clinic has an impressive celebrity clientele who were magnimous in their response to the call to take on the daredevil racing soldiers…for a while it was touch and go, but in the end the soldiers triumphed. And the challenge goes on…each year the soldiers, celebrities and general public vie for top position and the top prize.

2016 was a game-changer because Back on Track applied to the Charity Commission for official status… and in October 2016 this was granted which means that Back on Track can now raise more money to help more servicemen and women heal their skin injuries and rebuild their confidence.

Dr Aamer Khan MD ChB

Co-Founder of The Harley Street Skin Clinic

"In the beginning, our aim was to get enough money to help injured service personnel enjoy karting, but Back on Track quickly developed a persona of its own. We do still raise money to continue the racing, but as more support is pledged from generous donors across the spectrum…celebrities, the Armed Forces and the general public…it has allowed us to take the charity to another level – one where we can offer physical help and cosmetic treatments to help alleviate scarring, burns injuries as well as psychological trauma. The medical industry has been generous, too, by offering their services at little, or no cost. Back on Track may be small…but we are mighty!"

Lesley Reynolds

Lesley, along with her husband Dr.Aamer Khan, founded Back on Track in order to help injured veterans who did not qualify for help on the National Health Service.

"When we started Back on Track, we discovered that many of the veterans were downhearted and disillusioned as the system had let them down. We made it our business to have a very short chain of command, so that decisions, and solutions, could be implemented almost immediately."
