Independence for Wawan: stair-climbing aid
Wawan needs a stair-climbing aid that the health system won't fund; the cost is $400.

I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the Magelang Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $400.
My current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 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 $400 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $65
• Delivery and set-up: $10
• stair-climbing aid: $325
Every share and every dollar helps.
