We are raising funds to support Maisy Mansbridge and her family during an unimaginably difficult time.

Maisy is a much-loved young girl and a passionate horse rider who fell from her pony while competing at the New Forest Point to Point races. As a result of her fall, Maisy sustained a significant brain injury and is currently being cared for in hospital with three bleeds on the brain. She has been placed in an induced coma to allow her brain the best possible chance to rest and heal.

Maisy is a true New Forest commoner at heart. She adores her horses and ponies and lives for riding — it is where she is happiest and most confident. Her courage, determination and love for the New Forest way of life are well known to everyone who knows her.

This fundraiser has been set up to help support Maisy’s family as they remain by her side and face the emotional, physical and financial strain that comes with such a serious injury. The funds raised will help ease time away from work and the ongoing support Maisy and her family may need during her recovery.

Any donation, no matter how small, will make a difference and will be received with immense gratitude. If you are unable to donate, simply sharing this page and keeping Maisy and her family in your thoughts means more than words can say.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity and support during this incredibly difficult time.

All funds raised will go directly to Lee, Maisy's dad, for him to use as he wishes through this tough time. Be that financial help while he cannot work, and or donations to the hospital and the air ambulance.
