I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Granada Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,200. My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $5,200 goes: • specialist standing frame: $5,000 • First-year servicing plan: $135 • Delivery and set-up: $65 Thanks for being kind about this.
