Alexander lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Los Angeles 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 $7,250. His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks. With the right equipment Alexander could join the school sports day. 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 $7,250 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $7,000 • Delivery and set-up: $85 • Fitting and training sessions: $165 Glad we found this place.
