Mobility fund: adapted tricycle for Aaliyah in Aberdeen
Aaliyah needs an adapted tricycle that the health system will not fund; the cost is $3,050.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom837 views
Aaliyah lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at Aberdeen General Hospital has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,050.
Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment Aaliyah could get to the shops and visit friends. 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $3,050 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $2,500
• Fitting and training sessions: $135
• Delivery and set-up: $185
• First-year servicing plan: $230
Every share and every dollar helps.

stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out.
