A pair of hearing aids for Beau: help Beau move freely
Beau needs a pair of hearing aids that the health system won't fund; the cost is $4,850.
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom5,293 views
Beau lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Sheffield Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,850.
His current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Beau could join the school sports day. It would change everyday life for the whole family.
We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $4,850 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $155
• Fitting and training sessions: $310
• pair of hearing aids: $4,385
Thank you for reading my story.
