Story

Thank You for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

There are not enough words I can find to recognise the brilliantly talented, endlessly devoted medical and nursing teams in the NHS. What they are having to go through at this moment in time and what they manage to achieve is awe inspiring. My heart goes out to every single one of them.

In July 2020 after coming out of the first lockdown my wife Phillipa suffered a serious accident when thrown from a horse. Phillipa was airlifted to A&E at Walton where she had a 5hr operation and placed in recovery. Unfortunately, the nature of the fall caused an incomplete spinal cord injury which sadly at this moment in time has left Phillipa tetraplegic. Phillipa was moved to Southport spinal unit and during her recovery contracted hospitalised pneumonia and nearly didn't make it, but for the incredible medical teams around her. Subsequently Phillipa moved to the Robert Jones and Agnus Hunt orthopaedic hospital in Oswestry where she has started her rehabilitation. Because of Covid since July we have only managed to see one another on a number of occasions and I hope to have Phillipa back soon.

At Portal golf club we have a history of our Captains nominating charities. I am so proud and honoured to be Captain of Portal golf club during 2021. I am Raising Funds for the two hospitals mentioned above by taking part in a number of events when we eventually get out of lockdown and will keep you updated on progress. I appreciate things have changed a lot over the last year, there are many charitable requests currently in the light of Covid and for some things maybe tight. All I ask is that you donate only what you can.

In fact, you could do something absolutely amazing by just donating £1 or $1 and pass my JustGiving site link https://www.justgiving.com/team/Anthony-Lowe6 onto your friends and connections. If they did the same just imagine what we can all achieve together. I would like to generate a positive 'R' number for the two charities instead of the negative one we all know about today.

I would like to keep funds as equal as possible so please choose one of the charities on this page xxx.
