A specialist standing frame for Ochieng: help Ochieng move freely

A specialist standing frame would give Ochieng independence - we're $1,350 away.

Ochieng lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Mombasa Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,350. His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Ochieng could speak with the people around him. 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 $1,350 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $35 • specialist standing frame: $1,300 • First-year servicing plan: $15 Every share and every dollar helps.
