Help Mike and Shona navigate his brain tumor journey

It is with great sadness that we share that Mike has been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor and has been given six months to live.

Mike has dedicated his life to his work as an Activities Coordinator at a retirement village which he absolutely loves, but unfortunately may not be able to continue due to his health declining so rapidly. Mike has also dedicated himself to his family and tirelessly volunteering and fundraising for the Manawatu Stroke Club - making a lasting impact on our community.

Unfortunately, Mike does not have life insurance. Every donation will go directly to Mike and his wonderful wife, Shona, to help cover essential costs as they navigate this incredibly difficult journey together. Without life insurance and with rapidly increasing cost, Mike and Shona need help to meet immediate and ongoing expenses.

Your kindness will make a real difference.
