Story

Hello I am Alexander, I am 9 years old and I live in Yorkshire. I have Freidreich’s Ataxia, this means I am unable to walk independently. 

I really enjoy playing Powerchair Football, it gives me the opportunity to socialise with other children and adults with disabilities.  My day wheelchair has been damaged as it is not designed for playing football.  I desperately need a specialised wheelchair so I can continue playing the sport I love.

With the kind support of the local community and Caudwell Children I have been given a specialist sports wheelchair to give me the chance to achieve my potential and continue playing football and spend time with my friends.

Please help me fundraise for Caudwell Children, so they can help more disabled children like me in the area who desperately need equipment or treatment.

THANK YOU for supporting my appeal, Alex.
