The Chronicle has set up a bank account to help a 65-year-old Wanganui paraplegic who lost thousands of dollars stolen by his caregiver.
On Wednesday we reported the shocking elder-abuse case of Chris (not his real name), a city-centre rest-home resident.
His caregiver, who was supposed to have been looking after his bills, used his bank card to steal thousands, leaving Chris - who is confined to his bed - frantic that he would be evicted from his rest home for unpaid bills.
The Chronicle account is with the ANZ bank and donations to help Chris can be made there.
We have already kicked it off.
