Fundraising auction to help buy wheelchair for Bledington schoolboy John Dickson
2:00pm Saturday 23rd February 2013 in News By Ian Craig
A FUNDRAISING auction to help raise £20,000 to buy an all-terrain wheelchair for a nine-year-old boy will be held at Bledington School on Friday March 1.
John Dickson suffers from Duchenne muscular dystrophy – a condition which causes his muscles to weaken over time – and needs a special wheelchair to help him join in with his friends.
Prizes in the auction include a F1 factory tour for four and a range of other exciting gifts.
