Beatriz needs an adapted tricycle - help us make it happen
Help Beatriz get an adapted tricycle so She can go outside without waiting for someone to push.
🇪🇸 Tarragona, Catalonia, Spain3,680 views
Beatriz lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Tarragona Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,500.
Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Beatriz could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $5,500 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $5,000
• Fitting and training sessions: $185
• Delivery and set-up: $135
• First-year servicing plan: $180
Every share and every dollar helps.

Best of luck. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
Keep going, Ramón. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
Take care, Ramón. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Sheffield donated after I showed her your page
