David was 16 years old when a horrific accident irrevocably changed his life. On the 3rd
of November 2001 David suffered a C4 spinal injury - broken neck - while taking part in
organised sport at Whitecraigs Rugby Club. This resulted in the loss of movement of
David's limbs from his shoulders down. Following the accident, to maintain his recovery
and rehabilitation at home, David requires round the clock care and special adaptations to
his living environment.
David lives in Barrhead, East Renfrewshire with his parents and brother Craig. He returned
to Barrhead High School to complete his education and is presently studying Psychology
at Strathclyde University.
The David Azhar Appeal was established on 8th October 2002 with a clear purpose -
to transform David’s life. The Appeal works to ensure that he has the support to sustain
his future and help him realise his full potential despite his disability. Since the accident
occurred, there has been an overwhelming response from friends, family, statutory
agencies and the wider community.
The aim of the Appeal is to provide specific support - looking to raise money for essential
equipment to maintain David's health but also to give David confidence by meeting new
people. With ongoing support from the Appeal David will be able to continue his life and
follow his ambitions.
