I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at Derry General Hospital has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,800. My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $6,800 goes: • adapted tricycle: $6,000 • Fitting and training sessions: $360 • Delivery and set-up: $120 • First-year servicing plan: $320 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Tanvi

Updates from Tanvi

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,425 in total) the plan for adapted tricycle is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $1,150 raised so far (17%). the plan for first-year servicing plan is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($413 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
