Massive Fundraising Push For Westmeath Cyclist Injured In Accident

Friday, 26 July 2024 at 12:37

Over €70,000 has been raised so far.

Over €70,000 has been raised to support a Westmeath man who was seriously injured in a cycling accident.

Stephen Corroon, who's a member of the Lakeside Wheelers Cycling Club in Mullingar, fell off his bike in May and was left with a cervical spine injury.

He suffered a permanent neurological deficit and is unlikely to have use of his legs or arms again.

Mr. Corroon requires significant home adaptations, and equipment to ensure care at home.

€72,000 has been raised so far, with a final target set of €200,000.

Anyone who wishes to make a donation can do so here.
