A boy who suffered a catastrophic brain injury at just two days old has launched a campaign to save an activity centre for disabled people.
Oliver Voysey, 13, from Newcastle upon Tyne, is raising money for the Lake District Calvert Trust activity centre, which allows people with disabilities to enjoy the benefits of outdoor activities in a safe and accessible, yet challenging environment.
Oliver was left blind, with cerebral palsy, epilepsy, autism and learning difficulties after his brain injury, but with specialist help at the centre is able to take part in activities such as rock climbing and canoeing.
Appearing on This Morning, his mother Sarah told that his birthday wish was to save the centre, which has lost nearly £1million in income due to the pandemic and is now threatened with closure.
