Please support Miles' family

Wellington

We are raising money to support the grieving family of little Miles. 5 year old Miles drowned as a result of a tragic accident at Avalon Park on 14 December. Miles, along with his parents and baby brother, recently arrived in New Zealand and made Wellington their home.

The money will be used to cover funeral costs, and if possible support some family members to travel to New Zealand for the funeral.

Use of funds

Funeral and associated costs. Any donations will help support the family through this difficult time. If possible, will also contribute to helping family travel to New Zealand for the funeral.

ACC eligibility for funeral costs is unknown at this stage in this case given the family's recent immigration status, however I will update the page when more information becomes available.
