I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Santa Rosa Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $500. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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: β€’ specialist standing frame: $400 β€’ Fitting and training sessions: $50 β€’ Delivery and set-up: $10 β€’ First-year servicing plan: $40 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
