Courtney lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the San Jose Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,750. Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Courtney 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 $5,750 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $5,000 • Fitting and training sessions: $145 • Delivery and set-up: $195 • First-year servicing plan: $410 Every share and every dollar helps. - Anna
