I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at the Islamabad Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $300. My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment I could speak with the people around him. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home. 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 $300 goes: • adapted tricycle: $230 • Fitting and training sessions: $20 • Delivery and set-up: $15 • First-year servicing plan: $35 Thank you for reading my story.
