An adapted tricycle for Nancy: help me move freely
An adapted tricycle would give Nancy independence - we are $900 away.

I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at the Madina Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $900.
My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $900 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $770
• Fitting and training sessions: $60
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $55
I hope life is good to you.

Hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 20 people at work. Greetings from Ribeirão Preto
