The first episode of DIY SOS: The Big Build Ireland aired on Sunday evening and introduced us to the Drummond family. Baz and his team went to Cork city to transform the Drummond’s home and make it wheelchair friendly. Adam Drummond, a 22-year-old former Irish International basketball player, fell from a height in May 2021 and is now in a wheelchair with only a 1% chance of ever walking again. The team did an amazing job transforming this home.
