Last weekend in Whangateau the quad bike the McLean family was travelling on (while the slips on their road were being fixed) slid off the road and went down a steep ravine.

John, Jasmine and Delilah sustained moderate injuries but Paula remains in hospital in a stable but serious condition.

At present, the future remains uncertain but any donations will assist this community-driven family to rebuild and recover from this traumatic and horrific accident.

A Give A Little page has been set up to help with ongoing costs. You can donate here

Use of funds - The goal is to relieve the financial pressure for the McLean family while they work their way through the coming weeks and months of rehabilitation and recovery. Any donation, small or big, will be used to pay bills and associated costs.

$25,000 has currently been donated and more will be needed.

There is also a meal train set up where people can make food for the family to help if you prefer . Drop off is in Whangateau.

Amazing to see the daily slots are already full until the end of July!
