Injured young boy needing donations
Please find the link for Max’s give-a-little page attached to this email.
On Sunday 7th May Max sustained a serious head trauma whilst racing motocross, one of the sport he adores, along with his beloved rugby. As you can imagine this has been devastating for his family.
Here is a little bit more from me.
On Sunday the 7th May, Max Bartley was participating in one of his most loved sports, ‘Motocross’.
Max is a quite 13year old boy that loves his Rugby and Motocross.
He always gives 110%.
Is kind and respectful to others, and always takes a moment to say hello.
He’s just an amazing kid.
Unfortunately as Max was chasing the race leaders in the final round of the day, Max had a life changing accident.
Max was thrown from his bike and landed headfirst.
Track Medics rushed to his aid.
Max was unresponsive and breathing was compromised.
As luck would have it, a rescue helicopter was already in the air (returning from another job) and was on the ground with Max within 20minutes.
Max’s life was at risk and if he survived, there was going to be many massive hurdles to get over before a lengthy recovery period could begin.
After an urgent flight to Waikato ED, Max was put into a medically induced coma, pressure was released following confirmation of several brain bleeds.
The following day Max was flown to StarShip in Auckland.
Max is still in a Medical coma, and as of yesterday now breathing on his own.
The amazing medical staff at StarShip are pleased with Max’s progress.
The Give-a- little page was setup by Erica (Max’s motocross mum) who was with him on the day of his accident, flew with him in the helicopter and never left his side until Max’s parents arrived at the hospital the following day.
Erica’s wish of the money’s raised is to help Max’s family by alleviating the financial burdens of day to day life and allowing them to be by his side during this stressful time and help Max with the essentials to aid in his recovery and help bring normality back in to his life when the time is right.
Please share this with the loving and caring people of your community.
I appreciate that Max may be a stranger to most, if not all.
But he needs our help, he’s the sort of kid that would gladly help a stranger out.
It’s our time to help him.

Hey Pakeha - are you gonna let Seymour talk for you
Govt is elected to
1) provide goods and services that one person can not on their own. Eg Hospitals / Police. Govt is not to change our Agreement / History Treaty of Waitangi because some minor party of a coalition (wannabe control freak) says so.
2) Wrong Chris needs to do (at the first bill reading, not second) what the people want, not what Seymour wants!!!!!!!!!! Upsetting the apple cart Seymour v 52,000. Loser Seymour!!!!!!!!
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
