Peter Yeo
Peter Yeo became a Quadriplegic in early July 2002, and was admitted to the World's Leading Spinal Research Hospital, Princess Alexandra in Brisbane, Australia, where he resided for 12 months concluding his hospital rehabilitation. Some of Peter's many media articles after his accident are attached (to view some of these articles, please click on the link in this sentence).
Because of his injury, caused by simply slipping on the floor running for the mobile telephone at home, Peter has decided to devote a majority of his time to assisting spinal research and those unlucky people who are not able to receive compensation for their spinal and medical injuries. "It's for those unfortunate people who have had injuries and missed out" quotes Peter.
The Peter Yeo PointZero5 Spinal & Medical Research Fund will not only donate 50% of its profits to spinal research (& there's some very exciting projects underway at present), but the remaining 50% will be disbursed to assist other Unfortunate Patients who cannot afford basic & necessary items like wheelchairs, hoists, pressure relieving mattresses, proper beds, internet functions, electric door openers, environmental controls, emergency devices & even Carers. One recent donation was a microwave cooker to a person who had not been able to have a hot meal in his home for 7 years! The smile on his face when he received it, was priceless!
The Peter Yeo PointZero5 Spinal & Medical Research Fund is global, with funds directed to Patients in need internationally. People who donate can stipulate in which area(s) they wish their funds to be directed.
All funds for Patients will be decided by a Board of Directors appointed by Mr. Yeo from time to time, and will include Distinguished Authorities from Leading Spinal Hospitals and Law Societies Internationally, as well as Leading Marketing Executives and Celebrated Media Personalities.
