Description

In the final part of our 3-part series marking the anniversary of the 7/7 London bombings, we hear from paramedic Sam Sinclair, who was deployed to Tavistock Square, the site of the fourth and final explosion.

Sam shares his experience of arriving on scene, witnessing the scale of the devastation, and making impossible decisions under pressure.

In this conversation with WEM’s Eoin Walker, he reflects on the lessons 7/7 taught him about teamwork, instinct, and how to carry the emotional weight of a major incident across a long career in emergency medicine.
