Pune

I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Pune Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,500. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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 $1,500 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $15 • adapted tricycle: $1,450 • First-year servicing plan: $35 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Senthil
