An adapted tricycle for Souad: help Souad move freely
Help Souad get an adapted tricycle so She can speak with the people around her.
🇪🇬 Alexandria, Alexandria, Egypt1,429 views
Souad lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at Alexandria General Hospital has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $750.
Her current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Souad could speak with the people around her. 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 $750 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $710
• First-year servicing plan: $30
• Fitting and training sessions: $10
Glad we found this place.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Love from Cape Town.
Take care, Duha. I hope things turn around soon. Blessings.
Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Badagry.
Wishing Souad a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Duha. Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours.
