# Let’s help bring Vance home

Calling out to our hockey family

Our Journey:

A little over 4 months has passed since the unthinkable happened to our family, our fun, cheeky and full of beans 4-year-old boy had a freak accident whilst visiting a friend's place. What that lead to I would never wish on my worst enemy, we have been through the ringer, make no mistake. I find it hard to put into words, but I have been able to take this situation and just deal with it as best I can I guess, I'm not perfect, I've made mistakes and ran a bit of a muck I guess you'd say. But one thing i know is that without some really exciting opportunities given to me by the hockey club to be able to get involved with the Good Blokes Co. to help our club create a thriving community, not just one that plays hockey but one that really gives a damn about each other, I wouldn't be anywhere near as resilient as what i am now. Whilst Holly, Quinn, Vance and myself continue to transition out of hospital and work out what will work and won’t we ask for any donations you can spare to help us re adjust and carry on enjoying our once thriving outdoors lifestyle, return to hockey and the beautiful club and community we have all been a massive part in creating.

Thank you and I will see you all soon,
