Family Says Tate Modern Victim Faces Setback, Still Unable to Walk

A January operation has slowed rehabilitation, delaying a return to school.

Overview

  • The boy’s parents, in a GoFundMe update Tuesday, said he remains in a rehabilitation center and cannot walk after January surgery.
  • He now leaves only on weekends in a wheelchair and has done so for three weeks, which they said feels like a sad step backward.
  • The family said they finally found a school tailored to his needs, and new friends there keep in touch as they wait for his return, but no discharge date is set.
  • The fundraiser backing his long-term care has topped £500,000, with a new anonymous donation of £10,500 reported Wednesday.
  • Attacker Jonty Bravery is serving a life sentence with a 15-year minimum for attempted murder and was given 16 more weeks this year for assaulting two Broadmoor nurses after 2024 incidents.
