88 Antiques and a Trek through Peru
What does an antique store, Peru and cerebral palsy have in common? David Lucas, the one who has been running his antique store, aptly named 88 antiques for over 30 years now and he even lives above the store. He has always liked antique furniture and although today’s modern trends tend to sway what he has in stock, he does keep it mainly to his own personal tastes and preferences.
His favourite style is rustic country furniture, not the mass produced finely crafted stuff. He prefers the handmade, due to necessity; crafted out of whatever wood they had available at the time. This type of antique furniture is without a doubt completely unique and has a wonderful homely charm to it.
Recently Dave decided to do something different, he signed up for a five day trek through Peru, which started in the Urubamba Valley and finished in the lost city of Machu Picchu. This was something totally new for him and at the time he said ‘‘I’d never done anything like that before, I just had a desire to break the everyday sameness’. The trek through Peru was to help raise money for Scope and the trek itself managed to raise £130,000 for the charity whose work focuses on helping those with cerebral palsy.
There are many reasons why the illness occurs, but one of them can be attributed to birthing delivery or intensive care mistakes in special baby units. If this is the likely cause of the illness, then parents of the child are entitled to make a cerebal palsy claim for compensation. Many patients who are diagnosed with cerebral palsy require round the clock care and treatment; this is not something the NHS willingly provides free of charge, so a successful claim for compensation can help ease the burden of the medical costs.
