Nova wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care
Help Nova stay in her own home with six months of part-time care.

I'm caring for me, who's 83. After worsening Parkinson's disease Nova can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Nova desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Nova worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 2 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $5,000 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $4,100
• Medication and prescriptions: $290
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $175
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $435
Thank you so much.
