We would be grateful for the community of Crawley to help raise £1000 to send Alexus, Oliver, Ellie, Lillie and their parents on their planned family holiday to Blackpool later this month.

On Friday 28th July, emergency teams from Crawley Fire, Police and Ambulance were dispatched to reports of a vehicle into a House in Crawley, with an 8 year old girl trapped under the vehicle.

Amazingly, Alexus, being the brave superstar that she is managed to walk away, suffering from multiple minor injuries. She truly is an inspiration to us all, and has already been to visit Crawley Fire Station with a beaming smile on her face the entire time.

As a result of the cost implications following the incident the family are having to cancel their holiday arrangements, but we would love to prevent this from happening. After such a traumatic experience for all those involved we feel that a holiday is exactly what they deserve.

Many thanks in advance
