Phil Brown, who remains in a medically induced coma, suffered serious head injuries after being thrown from the quad bike while on holiday with pals in the Scottish Borders on March 1.
A dad-of-two is fighting for his life in hospital after being thrown from a quad bike in the Scottish Borders while on holiday with pals. Phil Brown suffered serious head injuries following the crash near Abbey St Bathans on Wednesday, March 1, and was airlifted to the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary.
Family friend Adam Bond told the Daily Record that self-employed Phil had travelled to Scotland with friends just days after a family trip to Ireland. He said: “We don’t have all the details of the accident, however we understand that Phil was a passenger on a quad bike, and that tragically, having tried to correct a wrong turn, Phil was flung from the bike and hit a tree.
“We set up the GoFundMe page on Friday evening in the hope that we could make a small contribution to supporting his wife Kate and his two small children. We originally set a target of £10,000 knowing that any financial contribution would remove a small amount of stress while Phil fights for his life in hospital.
“The reaction we’ve seen just shows how much we and many others love him and want him to return home with his family. They’re obviously based in Kent and have commitments here but have a need and desire to be in Scotland by Phil’s side for as long as necessary.”
