A riding friend of mine has been involved in an horrific accident whilst out in his bike. He’s currently in a coma and we’ve no idea what the long term prognosis is. He’s self employed and has 2 daughters that could do with some financial support in the short term. If anyone can chip in a £ or 2 it would be very much appreciated. Thanks 👍

I’ve dropped a tenner in the pot. Thoughts and prayers of strangers are all very well, but I reckon cash is more useful at this juncture.

Thank you very much 👍

Done.

Blimey :-(. Donated.

Thanks 🙂

As a self employed person prone to doing stupid stuff on a bike without a care in the world I can really appreciate the way this may pan out. Donation made and healing vibes for a rapid return to some form of normality sent.

Tenner in the pot……

Much appreciated 👍

I’ve put some money in too for two reasons.

I asked to raise some money on here for a worthy cause a couple of years ago and was greatly supported by strangers.

A truly humbling experience.

And because there but because of the grace of God go I.

I hope this chap recovers.

Cheers Merak – you’re absolutely right, the kindness of strangers is truly humbling and STW is at it’s best when pulling together to help. Thanks all once again 🙂

I know the justgiving page is a bit light on detail, that’s largely because he was on his own when the accident happened so we don’t fully know what has happened as yet.

Dun.
Best of luck to them all

Cheers Stoner and thanks to whoever’s stickied it 😁

Done. A kind stranger handed my wallet in a week ago and in it was some cash. So I’ve just donated half to another Dar(r)en. Hope he makes a recovery.

Done, good luck.

Donated – as a bloke with kids and hopefully to soon be self employed 👍🏼🚲

Thanks all 🙂

Tenner in a worthy pot.

Only just spotted this – done

Pay day later in the week so will certainly donate then.

Donated. Worth the price of a couple of beers to support a rider in need.

Done. Don’t know him, but hope he recovers soon.

Blimey Jase – only just seen this. Hope he pulls through and best wishes to his family

Cheers Tom 👍 and thanks everyone that’s donated. We’ve reached 10K so increased the target to keep going.

Done, hoping for a speedy recovery. Keep us informed.

Donated. Good luck to Darren and his family on the road to recovery.

Done. All the best

Donated. As said before, there but for the grace of God. Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery

Donated, there but for the grace and all that, I`m self employed too, good luck with your recovery

Thanks everyone. He’s having an MRI today which should reveal the full extent of his injuries and give a better understanding of the situation 🤞

Go well

Just added a few quid. Fingers crossed he gets better soon and makes a full recovery.

Gary

The absolute best use of money.

All the best to him and his family.
