Independence for Rajan: powered wheelchair
Rajan needs a powered wheelchair that the health system won't fund; the cost is $500.

I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the Nagpur Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a powered wheelchair. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $500.
My current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $500 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• Fitting and training sessions: $20
• powered wheelchair: $460
Thanks for being kind about this.
