Arif needs a specialist standing frame - help us make it happen
A specialist standing frame would give Arif independence - we're $1,000 away.

Arif lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at Surat General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,000.
His current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Arif could attend work interviews. 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $880
• Fitting and training sessions: $40
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $65
Thank you so much.
