Help us get Nicks’ home modifications done - so he can come home and be safely mobile

Auckland

Helen and Nick are a wonderful couple who are going through a bit of a rough patch after Nick sadly suffered a stroke on the 23rd of May.

Nick now has weakness on his left side which affects his mobility (and playing his guitar! 😕) Their lovely dog Hunter is missing her Dad dearly and is looking forward to his return

While Nick is undergoing rehab and living-in at Auckland Hospital, Helen is trying to get their house ready for Nick’s impending (and much anticipated) return home

Unfortunately the paths are too wonky for Nick to walk on as he is a little unstable on his feet. The plan with this page is to seek donations to help cover the costs to get the paths concreted, and any remaining funds used for all the other small items; he'll need grab rails and adjusted steps in and out of the house and rails also in the bathroom.
