DRIFTLAND Fife are hoping to raise enough money so a wheelchair bound five-year-old girl will have a new start in life.

Freya McMillan, the daughter of Peter McMillan, a volunteer marshal at the track, is currently unable to join in with her two brothers and two sisters in outdoor activities but that could all change with the help of a charity event run by Driftland this Sunday.

Freya was born ten weeks premature and was in intensive care from birth, as she then underwent an MRI scan which led to her being diagnosed with Periventricular Leukomalacia (PVL).

And as a result of the PVL, Freya developed Cerebral Palsy Quadriplegia - which affects her four limbs - which would soon lead to epilepsy after seizures from the age of three.

Driftland are hoping they can raise £600 so Freya's family can buy a specially adapted tricycle which would give her the physical support needed so she can enjoy family outings in her own unique bike which would attach to either of her parents' bikes.

Paula McMillan, Freya's mum, said: "Freya's Cerebral Palsy stops her from sitting unaided, standing and walking, so she is in a wheelchair most of the time. Whenever we go outdoors she needs to be in her wheelchair.

"We all love to go outdoors and go on adventures, but unfortunately for a lot of activities we are restricted.

"Freya needs the proper support to keep her sitting up as she has very poor trunk control which makes sitting and balancing very difficult.

"It would mean the world to us and to Freya to have something for her to enjoy our adventures in!"

The fun day will feature drift demonstrations, drift taxis with some of Scotland and North England's best drivers, public drifting, a show and shine, as well as prizes to be won.

If the £600 target isn't reached on the day, Driftland will make up the difference and will treat Freya's brothers and sisters if they surpass their goal.

The event starts at 12.00pm and runs to 5.00pm.

Entry is £10 for adults and £5 for U16s with 50% going to the appeal with drift taxis costing £20, or two for £30.
