Story
My story
16 years ago i was on holiday with my grandparents in Cyprus famagusta on the 3rd day into my 6 week holiday I was in a car accident I broke my neck which damaged my spinal cord that left me with a life changing disability I am paralysed from my neck which left me with very limited arm and hand function and no movement in my legs i was just 15 years old
.I spent the rest of my 6 weeks holiday in hospital in Cyprus till I was stable enough to fly home to be in another hospital for rehabilitation for a further 1 year and 3 months at this point I was told the devastating news that I will never walk again .
before my accident I loved the outdoors I was a very active teenager I loved playing football, (GOONER FOR LIFE) riding my bike I loved dancing always copying music videos especially Britney spears
Loved playing on my PS2 .to come to terms that I would never to be able to do those things ever again is something you can never get over .
The reason why I'm setting up this page is unfortunately i didn't receive any compensation as I didn't have travel insurance. Which would of paid for physiotherapy/equipment new wheelchairs throughout my life .with your kind donation big or small I'd like to raise 20,000 to buy a new manual wheelchair and hand cycle so can get back into being in the outdoors and find new ways for an active healthy life
