Mobility fund: communication tablet with eye tracking for Antonio in Rome

Antonio lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Rome Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,550. His current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks. With the right equipment Antonio 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $3,550 goes: • communication tablet with eye tracking: $3,150 • Fitting and training sessions: $220 • Delivery and set-up: $50 • First-year servicing plan: $130 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
