A Fundraising Gala Evening in aid of Laurie Squirrel is to be held on Friday 4th March 2005, at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel, National
Exhibition Centre.
16-year-old Laurie from Stowmarket near Ipswich was the U.K.'s top femaleMotocross rider, who tragically broke her back at the USA Ladies National Championships in December 2004 and is now paralysed from the chest down.
The aim of this evening is to raise sufficient funds to help Laurie and her
family cope with the financial costs of trying to carry on with as normal
life as possible, such as converting their home so Laurie can get about more freely and have a better quality of home life.
It is hoped the event will have the backing of several Celebrities and
Sports personalities who are pledging their support to the evening. In
addition an Auction is to be held during the evening which will include
items such as a 'Trip to Las Vegas' (the last round of the Supercross
Championship) amongst many others.
