Story
Andrew Murray is a four year old boy from South Lochs who has an undetermined neurological condition. This condition began at fourteen months old, seeing him go from a normally developing child achieving all his milestones, to a child that has regressed to a point where he finds it difficult to simply move.
He cannot talk and is wheelchair bound for most of the time.
He also can no longer eat normally and has to use a feeding tube inserted into his stomach.
Recently he has developed severe scoliosis (Twisted Spine) which means he is no longer comfortable in the chair provided by the N.H.S.
Andrew’s parents would love to get him a specially moulded chair know as a PPod chair.
These are custom made and cost between £800-£1500, depending on the adaptations needed.
In 2017, Tony (Muff) Divers will be undertaking a sponsored cycle in an effort to raise as much money as possible to help Andrew’s dream of a more comfortable future.
He will be cycling from the BUTT of LEWIS to RODEL and would be grateful if you would like to help him, by helping Andrew with a donation/sponsor.
Many Thanks

7 years agoFolks, this has been an incredibly humbling week. To have reached our target within such a short space of time is simply incredible. Andrew, his parents and myself, are overwhelmed at your generosity. Not wishing to single anybody out (we have had examples of your kindness which go way above and beyond), but the donation which pushed us way over our target, shows us the compassion and benevolence of the community we live in.
