Mobility fund: specialist standing frame for Leonardo in London

A specialist standing frame would give Leonardo independence - we're $3,650 away.

I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the London 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 $3,650. My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 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 $3,650 goes: • specialist standing frame: $3,150 • Fitting and training sessions: $110 • Delivery and set-up: $155 • First-year servicing plan: $235 Glad we found this place. - Leonardo
