Mobility fund: adapted tricycle for Amal in Heliopolis
Help Amal get an adapted tricycle so She can go to school independently.
Anywhere in the world582 views
Amal lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at the Heliopolis Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 10 weeks.
With the right equipment Amal could go to school independently. 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 $100 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $50
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $35

Sending love, Jamal. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Heliopolis.
You're not alone, Jamal. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Jamal. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
