Support Reuben and his partner, Renee, during this incredibly tough time.

Whanganui, Manawatu-Wanganui

Kia ora tātou,

On Thursday 3rd July, our dear friend Reuben was involved in a serious car accident just outside of Whanganui. He sustained major injuries to the lower half of his body, and faces a long road to recovery—likely a year or more of healing and rehabilitation.

We've created this Givealittle page to support Reuben and his partner, Renee, during this incredibly tough time. The funds will go toward essential costs like transport, food, utilities, and will help ease the financial pressure while Renee takes time off work to care for him.

Reuben is deeply loved by his friends, whānau, and wider community—and we are endlessly grateful that he is still with us. Any contribution, big or small, means the world as we rally around him and Renee on this journey.

Ngā mihi nui,

The loved ones of Reuben Osborne
