Henry lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at Badagry General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,050.
His current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Henry could go to school independently. 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $950
• Fitting and training sessions: $20
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $65
Thank you for reading my story.
