Hi everyone, thanks for coming to this page to raise funds for my dad, Darren Hoare.

In May, my dad suffered a horrific accident at work, resulting in him losing his right arm. As well as losing his arm, he has had to have 8 operations, which have affected the use of his legs. The accident and operations that have followed have had a serious impact on his mental health. He has now started physical recovery on his legs as well as counselling for the trauma he faced, both of which will take time.

We are hoping he will be able to make a recovery back to what his life was like before, and a prosthetic limb would be key to this. Prosthetic limbs are, however, extremely expensive and getting the best one to help him is our aim. We know that we won’t raise all of the money for the very best, as they are £80,000, but anything towards getting the best one we can get will be a huge help.

Life at home is now very different for both him and my Mum, so we will also be looking to set a portion of the funds aside to help with care and equipment, to make this less frustrating and much easier for them both. We want to try and help them live a life as close to what they had as possible.

Thank you for reading and thank you for any donations, it will really make a difference.

Connor
