Independence for Maryam: adapted tricycle
Maryam needs an adapted tricycle that the health system won't fund; the cost is $950.
🇪🇬 Mansoura, Dakahlia, Egypt1,196 views
Maryam lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at the Mansoura Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $950.
Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Maryam 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 $950 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $840
• Fitting and training sessions: $25
• Delivery and set-up: $25
• First-year servicing plan: $60
If you're reading this, thank you.
