Help My Daughter Chase Her Dreams in a

Hi, my name is Kelly, and I’m reaching out with a heartfelt request.

My daughter is a young and talented athlete with a deep passion for wheelchair racing. She lives with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia, a condition that means she is completely dependent on a wheelchair for mobility. Despite the challenges, she’s shown incredible determination and potential in adaptive sports.

Right now, she’s using a second-hand racing wheelchair, but unfortunately, it’s not fit for purpose. The setup isn’t right for her body, which causes her to sit out of alignment, leading to discomfort and affecting her performance. She needs the support of two people just to get in and out of the current racing chair, and without proper support, it’s unsafe for her to continue using it for racing.

We’ve learned that she needs a custom-made racing wheelchair — one designed specifically around her body and abilities. This type of chair would not only allow her to train and race with confidence, it would also unlock her full potential as an athlete.

The cost of this custom chair is £8,500, and while that’s a big number for us, we truly believe in her future. This support would be life-changing — not just for her athletic journey, but for her confidence and independence too.

We are asking for help from the community, friends, and anyone moved by her story to please consider donating or sharing this campaign. Every pound brings us closer to seeing her fly down the track in a chair built just for her — one that you helped make possible.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being part of her journey.

Please donate or share. Your support means everything.
