Earlier this month (November 2025), our dear friend David was involved in a horrific cycling accident that left him with life-changing injuries. In an instant, his and Lesley’s world was turned upside down.

David now faces a long and challenging road to recovery, including extensive rehabilitation and specialist care at The Austin Spinal Unit. While he shows incredible strength and determination, the emotional and financial burden will be overwhelming.

This fundraiser has been created to support David and Lesley during this difficult time; helping with medical costs, home adaptations, travel to rehabilitation appointments, and giving them the support they need to focus on David’s healing.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a real difference and remind them they are not alone. Please share this page, and keep David and Lesley in your thoughts as they face this journey together.

Thank you

Deb and Ness
