<div>Our son, Sam (also known as Kitch) is a lovely, caring, intelligent and outgoing 23-year-old, who is a keen footballer and all round sportsman.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On the 9th March 2025, his world turned upside down when he had a traumatic accident and was rushed to hospital with 3 broken vertebrae to his neck and back and fractures to his shoulder, sternum, rib cage, elbow and pelvis. He also suffered lacerations to his kidney and spleen. After spending a week in an induced coma to stop the internal bleeding, he was then operated on a total of three times to try and stabilise his fractured vertebrae. Unfortunately, the broken vertebrae in his back led to T6 level incomplete spinal cord injury which has resulted in him losing the motor function in his legs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As you can appreciate this is devastating news for anyone to hear, let alone a young athletic man with the rest of his life ahead of him but his sheer strength, determination and positive attitude has been nothing short of admirable.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Before his accident, Sam played semi-professional football for Tadcaster Albion and previously Rossington Main FC. Sam has grown up loving football, supporting Liverpool FC and playing academy football at Barnsley FC and Doncaster Rovers since the age of 8. After leaving school at 16, he then went onto do a football scholarship at Queen Ethelburga’s College in York after which he chose Loughborough University to study Economics and also captained their university football team.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are committed to ensuring that Sam has the best chance for recovery and the opportunity to pursue his dreams. All funds raised here will go directly towards the physiotherapy and intensive rehabilitation needed to help Sam in his recovery to hopefully walk again.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are also planning to do a few fundraising events over the next few months and will post any updates to this page.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your donations will make a massive difference in helping Sam to rebuild his life and regain his independence. Thank you in advance for your kind generosity and support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Steve, Nikki, Jack &amp; George
