Story

Firstly, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 21st January 2008 my sister Jessica, aged 14 at the time, was making the short journey to her friends house after school.

On her short walk from the school, she was stabbed up to 20 times in a random and unprovoked attack. As a result she was left alone on the ground fighting for her life.

Thankfully a passing cyclist who happened to pass Jessica on his way home found Jessica, and delivered life saving treatment until the ambulance arrived.


Shortly after she was taken to a nearby hospital, where she spent five hours in surgery. This hospital was Chorley hospital's A&E department.

It's to this hospital and their amazing trauma team, that I owe my sisters life too. The money raised will go a small way towards the gratitude I will forever have for these people.

I will be forever grateful to everyone who helped saved my sisters life that evening.

Please spare whatever you can to help support these everyday hero's.

Thanks for your donation,

Chris
