A powered wheelchair for Gregory: help Gregory move freely
Help Gregory get a powered wheelchair so He can join the school sports day.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom1,532 views
Gregory lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Manchester Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,350.
His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Gregory 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 $6,350 goes:
• powered wheelchair: $5,750
• Fitting and training sessions: $280
• Delivery and set-up: $145
• First-year servicing plan: $175
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
