I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at the Auckland 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 $3,750. My current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $3,750 goes: • specialist standing frame: $3,200 • Fitting and training sessions: $250 • Delivery and set-up: $145 • First-year servicing plan: $155 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
