I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the Los Angeles Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $9,150.
My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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 $9,150 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $8,500
• Fitting and training sessions: $250
• Delivery and set-up: $195
• First-year servicing plan: $205
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
