Message from Niki's family:

In August 2004, our beautiful, talented daughter and sister, Nicola, was involved in a car accident, the cause of which may forever be a mystery, the effects however, are only too obvious; profound head injuries and a broken back left her immobile and locked in a world of her own.

Its thanks to the skill and care shown by the staff at Warrington General Hospital that Nicola is alive and taking her first steps on a long road to recovery.

Prior to her accident, Nicola was never happier than when she was around horses and valued no friendships more highly than those forged at Arley Moss Farm.

We are enormously touched and truly grateful for the efforts of everyone involved in this fantastic project.

Message from Niki's friends:

From the day Niki came into our lives, her infectious personality and warm loving nature made her a popular and a much loved member of the yard.

She was never too busy to help or offer advice and news of her accident shocked and greatly upset everyone, prompting the yard to pull together as one to return the favour.

This calendar is just one of the many initiatives which we and Niki's boyfriend/soulmate Will, have undertaken to help her come back to us, as her 'sunshine' is sorely missed.
