Story
A lot of the car community folk in Northern Ireland know Jonny Kennedy of Car Life, usually taking pics at various shows come rain, hail and shine!
Well, what a few of you may not know is Jonny's 7 year old daughter, Leah, needs a new wheelchair. Leah has currently outgrown her current chair and the new one costs a whooping £6000. The new chair will give her greater independence and grow with her well into her teenage years.
We all know we have an awesome car community in NI so it's time we dig deep and do our best to get this chair in time for Xmas :)
As a bit of an incentive, for every £10 you donate, your name will be entered into a draw to win a 1998 Subaru Impreza Turbo 2000, 70k miles, MOT until August 2017 and pretty darn unique! Leah will personally pick the winner on 16th October at a cars & coffee event.
So remember, we can get Leah new wheels and one of you lucky folk will also be getting new wheels :)

Thank you for your support and good luck :)
Remember to add your name and details to your donation to be entered into the draw.
