Duxbury Golf 72 Hole Challenge
Fundraising for Just4Children
Story
2 teams of 4 golfers will complete a gruelling 72 holes (4 times around the course) at Duxbury Golf Course, Chorley, PR7 4AT. The teams will start the challenge at 5am on Tuesday 15th June and hope to finish by 9pm that evening.
We are helping raise money for Just4Children for vital physiotherapy sessions and specialised equipment to help Noah, aged 6 months from Preston reach his full potential and improve his qualify of life.
Noah was born lifeless on 17th November 2020, where he was immediately whisked away to intensive care and placed on life support. At this time it was uncertain if Noah would survive. He received cooling mat treatment to prevent further brain damage but unfortunately the damage had already been done. A week later Noah's parents received the devastating news that the MRI showed a moderate to severe brain injury and Noah has suffered Grade three HIE - Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy, which basically means a lack of oxygen to the brain.
Noah has fought his way to be here and continues to amaze everyone, every single day. Due to his brain injury, Noah has been further diagnosed with a number of disorders including: Dystonia with painful muscle spasms, Cerebral Palsy, CVI or cognitive vision impairment, unsafe swallow currently tube fed, GORD Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease and possible seizure activity. Despite all of this Noah is determined little boy who has an infectious smile. We are all so proud of Noah and want to be able to give him the best possible life.
Early intervention is key to Noah and therapy is the only way to enable him to have the opportunity to gain more head control, to sit and hopefully walk! We want to raise enough money to allow Just4Children to provide weekly therapy sessions and buy the more specialised equipment that is needed.
Please help Noah to reach his full potential. We thank each and everyone of you for your support, it means so much to Noah, his family, friends and Just4Children.
