    Story

    Imagine this..
    You're going about your life, then something happens that throws it all out of balance. You have a stroke which paralyses you to the point where you can't do all that you used to do, even to the point you can't even tie your own shoe laces.
    You hear about it frequently in older people, but not so frequently in younger ones. This is what happened to me at the age of 29.
    I was having fun one night playing pool with my friends. I ended my evening in a coma.
    I made a recovery, but my life has not been the same as it was before. Hard work and perseverance have helped somewhat, but there are more things that can be done. I have researched in to stem cell therapy, which has been found to improve health drastically. But this comes at a price. The treatment is offered in America, but not in the UK (NHS or privately). I need to raise around £7000 to be able to go there, and to have this treatment. This wouldn't be the end of the work to get better, as afterwards I would need to have intensive physiotherapy to make the most of the stem cells.
    But having them will help immensely towards achieving a normal life again.

      What is crowdfunding?

      Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.

      The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.

      Great people make things happen

      Do you know anyone in need or maybe want to help a local community cause?

      Create you own page and donʼt let that cause go unfunded!
