A little about Johnny and Grace...

Talbot Football Netball Club is hosting a Golf Day event on Sunday 21st April 2024 at Talbot Golf Club.  This event carries special significance as we will be fundraising for a former player and son of a well-respected family in our community, who recently experienced a tragic accident. Johnny Hogg is a former Talbot junior player and son of John and Bernadette Hogg.  The Hogg family have been involved in the Talbot Football Netball Club in various roles for more than 50 years, with Johnny’s sister Bianca currently serving as Junior Netball Coordinator.

Johnny and his partner Grace are parents to two children, a boy (6) and girl (4), with Johnny working as a farmer.  Johnny was with friends on the family farm on 3 January 2024, when he struck a submerged rock diving into a dam, resulting in a fracture to his C4 vertebrae, leaving him with no feeling in his arms and legs. The road to recovery is uncertain, with the possibility of Johnny facing life as a quadriplegic.

Adding to the family's challenges, Johnny's partner, Grace, has been battling bladder cancer since June 2023. In the face of these exceptional adversities, the Hogg family's resilience shines through, but the financial burden of medical expenses and necessary home modifications weighs heavily upon them.

The Talbot community is coming together to support the Hoggs during this trying time. Our upcoming Golf Day event is dedicated to raising funds to assist with Johnny's ongoing medical needs, home renovations to facilitate his mobility, and future requirements, including a wheelchair-accessible vehicle.

We thankyou for joining us to support Johnny, Grace and the Hogg family through the challenging times they have ahead.
