Raj beat all the odds to recover from car crash caused by a deer in the road
Nottingham Post
|June 03, 2025
AMAN's life changed forever after he avoided hitting a deer while driving home.
Raj Gataora, from Silverdale, was driving home from work in 2005 in terrible weather conditions when a deer ran in front of his car.
It caused him to swerve and crash. Raj, then 21, beat all the odds, however, as doctors thought he would not be able to eat, drink or even breathe by himself due to a brain injury caused by the accident.
He went on to graduate from Nottingham Trent University only eight years later in 2013 with a 2:1 degree in criminology.
Now 41, Raj is engaging with workshops at Headway Nottingham, the brain injury association.
He is keen to inspire others living with significant life challenges and has previously said that he'd like to be a motivational speaker.
