Erlangga lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Jakarta Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,200. His current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Erlangga 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 $1,200 goes: • specialist standing frame: $1,050 • Fitting and training sessions: $55 • Delivery and set-up: $30 • First-year servicing plan: $65 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Aditya

              Specialist standing frame is $1,050 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Fair thing to want to know.
