Independence for Autumn: pair of hearing aids
Help Autumn get a pair of hearing aids so She can get to the shops and visit friends.
🇬🇧 Nottingham, England, United Kingdom2,744 views
Autumn lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Nottingham Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,600.
Her current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Autumn could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $2,600 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $2,100
• Fitting and training sessions: $120
• Delivery and set-up: $50
• First-year servicing plan: $330
If you're reading this, thank you.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Autumn?
Thank you. If you're in Nottingham I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Thinking of you. Hope this works out for you. God bless!
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope June is when things finally get easier. Take care.
Good luck, Anna. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Madina donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Nottingham
