I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Ludhiana Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $750.
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 $750 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $640
• Fitting and training sessions: $35
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $60
Thanks for being kind about this.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Radhika.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. stair-climbing aid comes first ($640) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.
Sending strength. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
