A specialist standing frame for Akinyi: help Akinyi move freely

Akinyi lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Kisumu Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,350. Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment Akinyi could attend work interviews. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $1,350 goes: • specialist standing frame: $1,200 • Fitting and training sessions: $60 • Delivery and set-up: $20 • First-year servicing plan: $70 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Caroline
