Alice needs a powered wheelchair - help us make it happen
Help Alice get a powered wheelchair so She can speak with the people around her.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom6,176 views
I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the London Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,650.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment I could speak with the people around her. 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 $6,650 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $320
• powered wheelchair: $6,000
• First-year servicing plan: $330
Thank you so much.
