Fundraising to assist Hunter with life changing physical therapy for his Cerebral Palsy
Papamoa, Bay Of Plenty
Hunter was born at 27 weeks and ended up with a whole range of medical conditions due to medical complications - brain bleeds, spastic hemiplegia cerebral palsy, craniosynostosis and a VP shunt to name a few.
Hunter currently has a local NZ physiotherapy program but with his muscles growing and getting worse because of the CP we are really wanting to ramp up his movement and came across an intensive therapy program over on the Gold Coast, Australia at “Centre of Movement” where he will undergo 3 hours a day, 5 days a week for 3 weeks. Unfortunately New Zealand does not currently offer an intensive therapy program such as this and we believe this would be hugely beneficial for Hunter and his goals to live as much of a normal life as he can. The therapy will offer Hunter more movement in his limbs to be able to do the things all of us take for granted.
The funds raised will go towards the $8200 AUD therapy, flights, accommodation and transport.
We did unfortunately miss out on the pop up clinic they bring over to Rotorua this year which had a very long wait list. So we are waiting on new dates for the Australia therapy, hopefully mid January 2025.
Any funds raised or the sharing of this page is hugely appreciated to help Hunter.
Hunter is our only child
These funds will be spent on Hunters therapy program at Centre of Movement, flights to Australia and accommodation.
If we do not reach the goal the funds will still be used as we are pushing ahead to get Hunter over there, we will find another way!
