Luke Hattersley
On Wednesday 19th May Channel 7 featured a story of 30 year old Luke Hattersley, a father of four young children who three weeks ago was involved in a horrific truck accident at Mt Nebo, Queensland. Luke's leg required amputation at the scene and now the father, wo was the sole income earner for the family, is left trying to rebuild his life and raise his young family.
To come to Luke's immediate aid Channel 7 launched an appeal for donations towards a prosthetic leg. Club Cares pledged the funds that are required to make up the balance of any comunity fundraising efforts to finance a prospethic leg.
