Mobility fund: specialist standing frame for Elena in Bacoor
Elena needs a specialist standing frame that the health system will not fund; the cost is $100.
🇵🇭 Philippines326 views
I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at the Bacoor Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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 $100 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $30
• Fitting and training sessions: $55
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
