Story
On 12/12/21 late at night, the car of a wheelchair user was set alight in an arson attack while he slept.
A hard working NHS hero, his car was destroyed and property damaged, and it was only through the quick actions of neighbours that the fire didn't spread to the house endangering his life.
Now this brave, determined, hard working man is without his specially adapted vehicle and transport. Unable to get to work or out of his house. He is also left with a large insurance excess to pay.
This page is to raise funds to cover the expenses this individual has suffered through this callous, cold hearted and reckless attack just before Christmas.
If you can help raise funds to help get this man back on the road and give him his independence back it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

2 years agoHappy New Year! Massive thank you to everyone who has helped support Jon. Hopefully he will be able to get a new car in the next few months, but until then with the generous donations received he doesn't have to worry about getting a taxi when he needs one.

2 years agoAgain a massive thank you to everyone for their generosity and support for Jon. I visited him yesterday evening and he says the messages of support and knowing there are still good people out there is one of the things keeping him going.
