Kylie lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Manchester Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,950. Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Kylie 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $1,950 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $220 • Delivery and set-up: $120 • adapted tricycle: $1,610 Every share and every dollar helps.
