Story

Dexter has Cerebral Palsy which affects his whole body, he struggles to move his limbs, sit without a wheelchair, isn’t able to talk or eat, he struggles to do anything without aid.  Dexter however is like any other boy of his age.  He has normal understanding of a 5 year old and is very intelligent.  Though he isn't able to talk, he is able to communicate through eye pointing and gestures. Dexter is witty with the reputation of being a class clown, he always sees the humour in situations and has an abundance for energy.  A boy who's mind is trapped inside a body that doesn't work for him, he works hard and has huge determination to do.  

We are raising money to help him live more independently in his home, these include:
Creating a wet room with an accessible bath
Widening doorspace so he can steer himself in a powered wheelchair
Adapting his room with monitors for his parents to monitor him more easily at night, a lift from the ground floor into his room.
To name but a few....
Please visit his Instagram or Facebook page to see all updates about his progress and how we use your donation.
