Chidi lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Ibadan Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,050. His current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Chidi could go to school independently. 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 $1,050 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $40 • Delivery and set-up: $30 • stair-climbing aid: $980 With deep gratitude, Segun

Hope it all works out. Hope the doctors have good news. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Jakarta
