Bailey's Story:

Hi I'm Bailey, me and my twin brother Cooper were born very early.  Mummy calls us her miracle babies.  I have Cerebral Palsy and Cooper has a zipper were the doctors fixed his heart.  We go to Yamba Public School and we're in Year 1.  I miss out on some school because I have to go to the OT, Physio and Hydro every week. 

I fly on a plane to go to Sydney to have my Botox twice a year.  I love flying on the plane. And I drive to Brisbane to have my boots made.  I want to be able to stand on my skate board, walk and run just like my brother.  It is going to take a lot of hard work but I want to be able to do these things myself.

As Bailey grows he needs larger sizes in his standing frame, leg wraps, seating systems, wheelchair, and walker.   Bailey has to have major surgery on his hips and femur bones.  This will entail 2years of rehabilitation with many therapists involved.  With Team Bailey we hope to raise the money to cover the cost of this therapy and any additional equipment that may be required.  We also need to purchase a vehicle and have it converted for wheel chair access.

To help Team Bailey achieve our goals you could sponsor our team for the annual Riverwalk Event by pressing the "donate now" button on our webpage and receive an automatic tax deductible receipt.

You could also help us raise sponsorship for Team Bailey by participating in the Annual Brisbane or Ballina Riverwalk event and collecting donations on our behalf using the pre-printed receipts supplied by The Developing Foundation Inc.

  • You could send this page to your family, friends, colleagues and anyone else you can think of and invite them to donate. 
  • You can read about the event at http://www.developingfoundation.org.au/help-give-raise-funds/riverwalk
  • You could help Team Bailey with practical things and support.  Anything is greatly appreciated.

All donations of $2 or more are tax deductible.  The Developing Foundation commits 90% of funds raised by or donated to Team Bailey to meet his needs.  The remaining 10% is used by the charity to cover credit card charges, administration and support.
