Story
On 30th September Andy Harris was involved in a horrific motorcycle accident. He has made miraculous progress and is hoping to move home before the end of the summer.
Andy needs a lot of specialist equipment at home, including a profiling hospital bed. When Andy is discharged from hospital, he will be given a single bed, meaning his wife Emma will need to sleep in a separate room. I hope to raise enough money to help buy them a new bed, fit for them both so that they can be together in their house. The money will also help cover some other specialist equipment Andy will need or help pay for some of the necessary alterations that will ease his move home. As Andy continues to recover I feel it is really important that he has all the help he can get to aid his recovery.
27th July will mark 300 days since the accident. In order to mark this day I will cycle 300km in 3 days. Each day I will be joined by friends and family of Andy who have supported him throughout his journey.
Please continue to pray for Andy as he moves home and enters the next stage of his recovery! Pray too for his wife Emma as they learn to adapt to the move home and all it entails. And pray that God continues to restore Andy back to full health.

7 years agoAs a family we are overwhelmed by everyone's generosity and support! Thank you all so much for your kind donations, which allowed us quickly to hit our original target of £10,000. I have raised the target to £20,000, as I would now like to raise enough to fund some alterations to Andy's home, including getting a purpose-made wet room installed for him! The NHS have said it could take up to two years to provide the wet room and they have suggested Andy would have to go elsewhere during this period, whenever he needed to have a shower!
