Care for Noah, 95: help cover a carer and medication in Sheffield
Help Noah stay in his own home with six months of part-time care.

I'm caring for my father, who's 95. After worsening Parkinson's disease Noah can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Noah desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Noah worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $3,950 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $3,100
• Medication and prescriptions: $420
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $260
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $170
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
