Mobility fund: pair of hearing aids for Pavel in Manchester
Pavel needs a pair of hearing aids that the health system won't fund; the cost is $5,200.

Pavel lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Manchester Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,200.
His current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Pavel 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 $5,200 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $4,650
• Fitting and training sessions: $280
• Delivery and set-up: $70
• First-year servicing plan: $200
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
