Mobility fund: specialist standing frame for Isla in Riverside
Help Isla get a specialist standing frame so She can attend work interviews.
🇺🇸 Riverside, California, United States4,568 views
Isla lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the Riverside Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,150.
Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Isla 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $4,150 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $3,650
• Fitting and training sessions: $200
• Delivery and set-up: $120
• First-year servicing plan: $180
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Keep going. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Hope it all works out, Megan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care

You're not alone, Megan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Cork so I could bring a meal.
Sending strength, Megan. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Savar.
