Independence for Mackenzie: adapted tricycle
Help Mackenzie get an adapted tricycle so She can attend work interviews.

I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Newport Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,950.
My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $2,950 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $2,400
• Fitting and training sessions: $110
• Delivery and set-up: $90
• First-year servicing plan: $350
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
