    Weʼve raised £440 to Help fund a mo-vis joystick controller for young Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy sufferer.

    Funded on Thursday, 18th July 2019

    Don't have time to donate right now?

    Story

    Cory is a 18 year old lad who is struggling with his independence due to the life limiting muscle wasting condition, Duchennes Muscular Dystrophy. Unfortunately Cory has deteriorated faster than expected, meaning he is unable to use his current controller that aids him with day to day routines and independence. This also has been affecting his self esteem and mental health.

    We are raising money for a new joystick controller for his power wheelchair. Which will enable him to regain some of his independence.

    A piece from Cory.

    "I would like to thank you in advance for any donations. The new controller will allow me to continue to live my life to the fullest possible. Doing such simple things as visiting the pub with my mates and going to view rugby matches. The controller will give me the independence and self esteem I need to keep me going." "Thank you"

    What is crowdfunding?

    Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.

    The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.

    Great people make things happen

    Do you know anyone in need or maybe want to help a local community cause?

    Create you own page and donʼt let that cause go unfunded!
