Renata lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Monterrey 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 $1,750. Her current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment Renata could speak with the people around her. 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 $1,750 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $90 • Delivery and set-up: $70 • specialist standing frame: $1,590 Thanks for being kind about this.
