I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at the Liverpool Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $850. 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 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 $850 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $340 • Delivery and set-up: $185 • First-year servicing plan: $325 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Cameron
