Mobility fund: braille note-taker for Myra in Mumbai

Myra needs a braille note-taker that the health system won't fund; the cost is $150.

I live with muscular dystrophy. My occupational therapist at the Mumbai Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $150. My current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $150 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $40 • First-year servicing plan: $60 • Delivery and set-up: $50 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
