Mobility fund: stair-climbing aid for Kanchana in Kandy
A stair-climbing aid would give Kanchana independence - we're $900 away.

I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the Kandy Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $900.
My current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment I could speak with the people around her. 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 $900 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $830
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• Fitting and training sessions: $55
Glad we found this place.
