Archie Tom's treatment fund

Help our wee warrior get life changing treatment and meet critical milestones.

Northland

Archie suffered a severe brain injury during birth to parts of his brain responsible for motor movements. As a result he has physical developmental delays and is struggling to meet milestones.

The good news is babies are very neuroplastic and with the help of frequent intensive therapy, particularly in the first two years of life, the necessary neuro pathways can be formed. The bad news is that this kind of treatment isn't funded through the public health system and it's expensive (~$10,000 per intensive).

Archie has made incredible progress attending his first intensive therapy. We have set up this page to raise funds to help get Archie to more intensives and give him the best chance of meeting critical milestones like crawling, talking, feeding himself and walking.

Help our wee warrior get the life changing treatment he deserves and meet critical milestones.

Use of funds

All funds raised will be spent on fees for intensive therapy for Archie. Each intensive is aprox $10k. If the target is not met funds will be used for shorter treatment sessions.

Alice here - just wanted to let you all know what your generosity has helped us achieve. With the donations through this page we have been able to book in two additional intensives (a 3 week and a 1 week block) to the one we had already committed to.

In the meantime, Archie is working so hard doing his home programme of exercises for an hour a day to keep getting those gains.

We are forever grateful to you all.

Love Archie, Alice, Doug and Jake
