Isabel lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Iztapalapa Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,800. Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks. With the right equipment Isabel could join the school sports day. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $1,800 goes: • communication tablet with eye tracking: $1,600 • Fitting and training sessions: $95 • Delivery and set-up: $35 • First-year servicing plan: $70 Thanks for reading all this.

          Is there anything that isn't money that would help Isabel?
