Charity Ghost Hunt In aid of The Shelby Speed-chair Appeal

Aug. 8, 2013 - PRLog -- Mystical Paranormal Events are honoured to announce that we are holding a Charity Ghost Hunt to raise funds for The Shelby Watson Speed-Chair Appeal.

In attendance will be Living TV's Celebrity Medium, Chris Conway (of Most Haunted fame) who will be the main Medium as well as the host. Chris was so moved by Shelby's plight that he has personally organised this charity Event and thrown in his services as a donation free of charge.

The Ghost Hunt will be held at the personal home of Lord David, Raehills Mansion. Lord David has kindly agreed to allow his home to be taken over for the night with up to 60 brave Ghost Hunters.

Mystical Paranormal Events are currently seeking a Company to Sponsor the Event as they attempt to maximise the amount raised.

                                           About Shelby

Shelby was born in Falkirk and was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy aged 3. This resulted in her being a wheelchair user. Now at 15 she attends Moffat Academy, and even though she's in a wheelchair she's just like any other 15 year old girl.

Shelby has a dream of being a speed-chair racer in the Paralympics. She is a member of Nithsdale Athletic Club and Red Star Athletics, and along with her P.E Teacher she spends most of her spare time training.

Due to her promising talent, Shelby was recently invited to attend a Paralympic Potential Event run by UK Sport, the British Paralympic Association (BPA) and Scottish Disability Sport (SDS) where all were extremely impressed by her drive and commitment.

Unfortunately, what is holding her back is not having her own speed-chair.

This is where she needs your help to fulfil her dream and represent Scotland in any future racing events. Shelby needs to raise £5,000 so she can get her speed-chair and begin Training.

Lynn Allison, Regional Manager with SDS says, "In order for Shelby to progress up the pathway in wheelchair racing it is vital that she uses the correct equipment, so any help in funding this very expensive piece of equipment would be greatly appreciated by not only Shelby and her family, but also us in SDS as we have high hopes that she could be one of our Paralympic Athletes in the future."

We really hope you feel able to help out and would be very grateful of any donation you can make.

Thank-you
