Smile4Rich Charity: Fundraising
Kick4Rick Dinner & Dance
Event Location   Mick Channon Suite - St Mary's Stadium
Event Description   On 11th August 2007, Ricky Fernandez’s life changed in an instant. Ricky, a community coach with Southampton Football Club, was involved in a road traffic accident whilst riding his motorcycle. On arrival at the Wessex Neurological Centre it was clear that the injuries he’d sustained were among the worst that had ever been seen at the centre. His medical report details the most serious as being; a severe fracture to the skull that resulted in bleeding and swelling of the brain, multiple fractures to the spine, a ruptured spleen, a collapsed lung, a broken pelvis, compound fractures of the leg, a dislocated shoulder and a broken nose. Suffice to say his condition was critical and several operations alone were required to stem the bleeding on his brain, and a total of 48 platinum coils were inserted.

Despite all his injuries, Ricky is making a remarkable recovery and in August 2008, almost a year to the day after his accident, he married his fiancée, Michelle. Now, by way of thanks to the staff at the Wessex Neuro Centre who saved his life, Ricky, his family and his friends are planning a ‘Kick4Rick’ Dinner which will be held at St Mary’s Stadium and will raise funds for the Smile4Rich Appeal. At the time of going to press, dtails are still being finalised, but full details of the event, which will include a dinner, auction and entertainment (provided by soul & Motown diva, Diane Shaw) can be found at www.kick4rick.com
