Help Michael get a pair of hearing aids so He can attend work interviews.
🇬🇧 Sheffield, England, United Kingdom3,503 views
Michael lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Sheffield Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,450.
His current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Michael could attend work interviews. 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $4,450 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $125
• Delivery and set-up: $100
• pair of hearing aids: $4,225

Hope things get better soon, Amelia. Your post was clear and honest. Take care.
Keep going, Amelia. Wishing Michael a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 30 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything
