Clondalkin family appeal for funds to bring their son home from hospital

The family of a Dublin man with serious injuries are raising funds in order to bring him home for the first time following his accident.

Eoghan Gorman was paralysed from the neck down last year following a horrific bike accident in the Dublin mountains. The Clondalkin native was motorbiking with a friend on October 3 2021 when he came off his bike down a steep trail. He underwent emergency spinal surgery and spent several weeks in a medically induced coma following the ordeal.

However, the 23-year-old has fought against the odds and is continuing his treatment at the National Rehabilitation Centre in Dun Laoghaire. His family are hoping to bring him home for the first time since the accident, but require urgent funds to help support him outside of the hospital environment.
