GRANT RECIPIENT STORY

Badly injured in a motocross accident two years ago, 15-year-old Max is still on the road to recovery. However, a set of golf clubs granted by the Wilson Home Trust has given him a new lease of life. ⛳️🏌🏼‍♂️

“Max was over the moon when he received the clubs,” says his father, Glenn. “He plays one-handed, but his left hand is now starting to improve. He loves going out with his mates, and golf is a safe, social sport that he can do with them. “

A few months after the accident, the family also received a holiday grant from the Wilson Home Trust. “We went to Taupō and went parasailing – that was awesome,” says Glenn. “Max had only been out of hospital for five or six months – it was a great way to celebrate that he was alive and to remind us how far he’d come.”

To other families facing similar challenges, Glenn has this advice: “Definitely apply for grants. Whether it’s equipment, a holiday, or something that helps your child stay occupied and do what other kids can do, it can really make a huge difference.”

A grant towards equipment or activities can be life-changing for a young person rehabilitating from an injury. 🩵
