James Dwyer Athlete with Paralysis
Donation protected
Underground Gym Brighton Team is trying to help James Dwyer (a beloved member of the UG community) and his family, with costs for adapting their home and personal lives after James had a life altering accident. James has undergone six hours of intensive surgery after an accident which has changed his and his family life as they once knew it; James has been left paralysed from the waist down.
James is a such a positive, friendly hard working member of our UG community! James was well known and active in our UG Oly and Cali community always smiling and making time for PBs and encouraging others to be just a humble and hard working. It's nice to see him still smiling and making a comeback as an athlete at Underground Gym.
James spent approximately 4 months in and out of hospitals after his accident and has just finally returned home to his wife and one year old son.
Unfortunately the house they live in is not quite suitable for his needs currently and requires some adjustments to help everyday living be a lot more manageable. This is why Underground Gym is reaching out to our community to help raise funds to support our local family member, friend, athlete adjust to his new life with paralysis.

Physio Sessions - £50

Adding sliding doors to wardrobe - £500
Widening of 3 doors at home - £1,500
