A specialist standing frame for Emilia: help Emilia move freely
A specialist standing frame would give Emilia independence - we're $1,450 away.

Emilia lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Gdynia Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,450.
Her current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment Emilia could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $1,450 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $1,200
• Fitting and training sessions: $70
• Delivery and set-up: $70
• First-year servicing plan: $110
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
