Van & Wheelchair Lift for Kerry

Our beloved work colleague from Height 4 Hire, Kerry Appleby was travelling to work on Monday 13 March when she involved in a head on collision with a driver who was on the wrong side of the road. The speed limit on Tamborine-Waterford Road is 100 km so the impact to Kerry & her vehicle was catastrophic. Against the odds she survived, however did sustain substantial injuries including multiple fractures & severe bruising which will result in future surgeries & a lengthy period of time off work.

Her van, that was customised with a wheelchair lift to enable Kerry to transport her son Jack who has cerebral palsy, was completely written off. Whilst the vehicle was insured, the write off value won't cover the cost of reinstating it's replacement with the customisations required.


We at Height 4 Hire are wanting to raise funds for Kerry & her family. Without the van & wheelchair lift, Jack cannot be transported with the family or to any of the outings that he enjoys such as volunteering, learning to swim etc.


To get the ball rolling, our wonderful bosses Ken & Geoff Baker from Height 4 Hire have pledged $12,000 towards the total of $32,000 required.

We would be eternally grateful for any donations to help Kerry & her family get back on the road again. Once we reach our goal of $40,000 we will be able to transfer donations to Kerry & her family for their replacement van & wheelchair lift.
