I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the London Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $550. My current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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 $550 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $135 • Delivery and set-up: $150 • Fitting and training sessions: $265 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
