David Martin and Neil Wightwick

From George Simpson

Some of you will know by now that David Martin and Neil Wightwick (Ocean Rowers – Atlantic4 2005) and their girlfriends were in a serious car accident in Africa shortly after competing in an ultra-marathon last month.

Everyone is now back in the UK and with the exception of David, they are expected to make a full recovery. David dislocated a vertebra in his neck during the accident and has suffered permanent nerve damage. David has shown remarkable determination throughout and is now focused on the steps he must take to regain his independence.

We expect him to spend around six months in rehabilitation in a specialist unit. During this time I’m sure he would welcome visitors, telephone calls and cards etc. If you would like information about how to contact David, or updates on his condition, please contact Glynn Coupland or myself (0781 6668388) and we’d be only too happy to put you in touch.

Yours,
Glynn & George
Atlantic4
