He was a passenger in a road traffic collision on 22nd February 2017, in a vehicle that collided with a tree. It took the emergency services 40 minutes to release him and he suffered a severe traumatic brain injury, along with bilateral semoral shaft fractures and an open right tibia and fibula fracture. After 3 months at King's College Hospital Max is now at the Children's Trust, for children with brain injuries, where he is receiving rehabilitation. Jacqui Bryer
