Anthony Margrave you Shall go to the ball

Donation protected
Hi welcome to my page! My name is Sammi and just over a week ago I started to make friends on Facebook with a truly remarkable man: Anthony Margrave . I didn't know straightaway just how awesome  he actually is.  As far as I knew, I was just exchanging messages with a regular guy, who liked the same music as me, and who made me laugh. It wasn't until Tony randomly mentioned being teetotal, and how alcohol and a wheelchair weren't a good combo, that I began to discover the truth about my new friend. 
On September 11th 2012, Tony went out for a ride on his new motorcycle. He crashed and lay in a ditch for 3  harrowing days, before he was finally found on September 14th! He was suffering from hypothermia, and it later transpired, a broken back. He survived his accident against all odds, but was left paralyzed. 
During one of Tony's many surgeries, something went wrong and he lost even more of his mobility, so that now he has to be lifted with a hoist.
Tony just gets on with life. He is happy listening to songs on YouTube and posting them on Facebook. And his family tell me he never complains, and is still the same cheeky lad he always was. 
Anthony might think his life is grand enough, but I want to do something special for him. I'd love to organise a trip for him to see his favourite band, New Order, in Manchester next year. This will involve hiring a wheelchair van because Anthony can't travel in a regular car anymore because of his injuries.
Please would you help me make this happen! Anything you can spare will be so gratefully received, and will be such a wonderful surprise for Tony, who doesn't know a thing about what I'm planning.
