Hannah needs a specialist standing frame - help us make it happen
A specialist standing frame would give Hannah independence - we are $2,450 away.
🇩🇪 Germany4,053 views
I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Mannheim Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,450.
My current equipment is 11 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $2,450 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $1,950
• Fitting and training sessions: $130
• Delivery and set-up: $115
• First-year servicing plan: $255
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Best of luck. Wishing Hannah a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Nashik

Wishing you the best, Hannah. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
