Firstly may I thank you for taking the time to read my appeal. Its greatly appreciated, and even more so during this economic crisis.
Taking children (or even ourselves) to the beach or walking in the forest is something we all take for granted, but can you imagine knowing a child desperate to feel the sea on his feet, and enjoy family time in the sand with his sister? No, me neither, but this brings me to why we have created this crowd funding page. Please read about about Seb below.
Sebastian is a 7 year old happy boy. At 12 weeks of age Seb sustained a traumatic brain injury, which resulted in 3 cardiac arrests. Luckily, with the help of our amazing NHS and the Welsh Air ambulance, he survived, despite his extremely low chances of making it through the night. As a result of his injury, Seb has quadlepegic cerebral palsy, epilepsy and is non-verbal. Despite these conditions, Seb amazes everyone he meets as he has learnt to communicate with a device and is now learning to read. He signs and definitely has a massive desire to be involved in everything and play with his friends. Living in a beautiful part of Wales Seb has spent a large part of his childhood outside, in the forest or on the beach. As Seb continues to grow this has now become very difficult to do. We have decided to raise the £4,000 needed to purchase a multi-terrain buggy. This means that the family will be able to take Seb to the beach with his sister and he can also access the forest .
With your help we can make this happen, and bring a family together, doing something we all take for granted.
Thank you
