Story
Our friend Abbi is about to finish her long road to success and qualify as a Physiotherapist after 5 hard years studying for her career change.... And she needs some new wheels!
Her journey began when she was seeking her passion to ride a Harley Davidson motorcycle.....
... She developed this passion while working for Harley Davidson head office in Oxford, where they took her to several warehouses where the machines were kept and like a kid in a toy shop she was hooked and fell in love. She got straight onto motorcycle training sessions with the company and getting her road licence from then on.
While out on her motorcycle training though, she lost control and got herself wrapped around a lamp post and broke both her legs 🤕.
She was so grateful for how well she was looked after by the physicians that she decided to reapply her talents to following in their footsteps.
She began to look into training and even though she had been through university once already, she got herself on the road to doing it all again but this time with a more inspired trade as a physiotherapist.
Strong as she is, with the help of these physio's, she healed as quickly as humanly possible and got right back to doing the things she loves; like pole dancing with moves like this..
...and this..
.. Not bad considering she's now got metal plates in those legs.
This was no easy task and took a lot of determination and patience.
She is now nearly at the end of her inspired mission, while also working as a nurse and physio technician at her local hospital, she has now got her final exams this week and is set for top marks.
Although she hasn't made it back to being a motor-biker yet, as she so loved..
she does cycle a push bike, another thing she was always very keen on..
..., she did buy herself a nice bike after her accident, but it was stolen and now she is currently riding some heap of junk that is actually quite unsafe to ride so she is back to getting around on foot and buses 😩.
So the point in me reminding you all of her journey is that I think it would be nice if she finished it with a token of appreciation from all of her friends, who I know are as proud and inspired as I am, and clubbed together to allow her to travel in a little bit more style than she can currently afford.
We all know that our countries NHS staff are over worked, under payed and are gods gift to us all in our hour of need, so let's do what can for this little treasure while we can, make her smile more than ever and start her new career with a good leg up 😉.
I've set the bar at £600, which could get a smart comfortable ride for her.
That means that to achieve this just 50 of you good people need to donate just £12 each, so im I’m going to set the bar at £15 😄. Let's not see that as a cap though, Who knows, maybe we could upgrade this campaign to getting her a car 😜.
Seriously though, please donate what you can and I believe this goal can be an easy success.
P.s, dont tell her until its over and be careful to leave her out of any posts you might post on social media, I’ll post pictures of the surprise on delivery and of course all locals are welcome to be there too.
Many many thanks X
