Stranger takes on 3000km bike tour of NZ to raise funds for North Shore girl
Kia ora neighbours.
In 2020 I reported on Hauraki 5-year-old Lydia Golding, who was born with a condition called proximal femoral focal deficiency (PFFD), which left her with an unformed hip and shortened femur. www.stuff.co.nz...
It has been Lydia's dream to walk with both feet on the ground, and surgery in the US last year got her closer to this by extending her leg by 8cm.
Hamish and Lauren Golding had to remortgage their home to pay for their daughter's bone-lengthening surgery, which cost just over $500,000 including travel and accommodation. The family are still paying this off, while the next surgery in the US will cost a further $465,000 (approx).
The Golding family have fundraised around $110,000 themselves, but now Jared Small - a complete stranger - has taken on the cause and is doing the Tour Aotearoa 3000km bikepacking trip from Cape Reinga to Bluff to help Lydia get two feet on the ground.
