A stair-climbing aid for Nour: help Nour move freely
Nour needs a stair-climbing aid that the health system won't fund; the cost is $5,750.
🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia628 views
Nour lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the Riyadh 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 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Nour 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $5,750 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $5,500
• Fitting and training sessions: $120
• Delivery and set-up: $130
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nour!
Stair-climbing aid is $5,500 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Let me know if you want more detail.
