In the early hours of Sunday morning, George and her husband Tom, along with two of their closest friends, were involved in a devastating road traffic collision caused by speeding teenagers on Wigan Road, Bolton. A night meant for celebration has left their lives permanently changed.
Between the passengers, they have sustained severe and life-altering injuries, including serious internal injuries, injuries to the brain and unimaginable trauma. The road ahead for all of them is long, uncertain, and deeply challenging, requiring extensive medical care, time, and support.
We have seen many people asking how they can help and expressing a desire to support those affected. This page has been created to provide a way for that kindness to be directed towards the survivors as they begin their recovery.
The funds raised will be shared between all survivors in the taxi. At this time, two of them are not being named. This decision has been made by their families while they focus on their recovery and we ask that their privacy is respected.
The money raised is intended to support immediate expenses not covered by insurance. This is to help relieve some of the additional pressure on their families, allowing them to focus entirely on healing.
We are sharing only limited details out of respect for the individuals and their families during this incredibly difficult time.
Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference.
Thank you for your compassion, generosity, and kindness.
We kindly ask that any anger or frustration felt is directed not towards blame or hate, but towards hope, healing, and recovery for those whose lives have been so profoundly affected.
