Story
Alex injured his back playing rugby for his local rugby club. He has not been able to walk or move much from his waist down since the incident.
He is self employed and as such has not been able to earn a living. The stress of not earning is really getting him down and the last thing he needs is to be worrying about paying bills when he should be focusing on trying to get back to good health. His partner Sophie is also pregnant which is also contributing towards the stress of not earning. I have set up this page to help try and raise some much needed funds to help him continue to support his family and pay for medical care.
Alex and our family are having to cover all medical bills with no help from the NHS.
We have had to specially adapted his home and buy a wheel chair etc.
As a family we are contributing as much as we can but like anyone, we also have bills that need paying.
We have no idea how much things are going to cost, we have already had to pay huge amounts. If this page helps bring him any amount of money at all it will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you to anyone who decides to contribute.

We had hoped to raise one or two hundred pounds to cover Alex for a week or so Physio, Osteopath and bills etc. Everyone is so great full for the support you are giving Alex.
