I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the London Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,300. My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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 $3,300 goes: โ€ข pair of hearing aids: $2,700 โ€ข Fitting and training sessions: $135 โ€ข Delivery and set-up: $185 โ€ข First-year servicing plan: $280 With deep gratitude, Terry
