I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Ibadan Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $500. My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $500 goes: โ€ข Delivery and set-up: $15 โ€ข First-year servicing plan: $35 โ€ข specialist standing frame: $450 I hope life is good to you.

  • Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Bakersfield.

    • Keep going, Yewande. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 15 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Ibadan.

      • Hope it all works out, Yewande. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings

        • Thanks for sharing this, Yewande. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Epe donated after I showed her your page. Blessings

          • you're not alone, Yewande. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings
