Travis Frain is one of a few (although, sadly, a growing number of) people who can say that they have survived a terrorist attack. When he was 19 years old, on a university trip to London, he was attacked on Westminster Bridge in an attack which injured more than 50 people, killing four. The attacker mounted the pavement, driving his van into pedestrians before crashing his car into the fence of the Palace of Westminster and attacking a police officer.
Today, Travis works as the National Chair of the Counter Terrorism Police Advisory Group and campaigns on behalf of terrorism survivors.
Daisy Maskell sits down with Travis Frain to hear about how becoming a survivor changed his life, the treatment of terrorist survivors by the media and his experience with disaster trolls.
