Selco is delighted to be showing its support for a project to adapt the family home of a Suffolk 20-year-old who suffered a catastrophic brain aneurysm.
Band of Builders, a building charity that completes practical projects to help members of the UK construction industry and their families suffering from life-changing or limiting circumstances, is currently carrying out work to enable Luke Goold-Hannatt to move back to his Woodbridge home.
Trainee bricklayer Luke was just 17 and in the second year of a bricklaying course at Otley College when he suffered an aneurysm known as an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in January 2020.
Since then, Luke has spent all his time in hospitals and rehabilitation centres before moving to the Sue Ryder Neurological Care Centre The Chantry around 18 months ago.
Lee Powling, branch manager of Chelmsford, the branch which provided the products, said: “As soon as we heard about Luke’s story, we had no hesitation getting involved to support the fantastic efforts of Band of Builders. We are keeping everything crossed that this will be a real turning point for Luke and his family after they have all suffered horrendously over the last three-and-a-half-years.”
