Vasanthi needs an adapted tricycle - help us make it happen
Vasanthi needs an adapted tricycle that the health system won't fund; the cost is $1,350.

Vasanthi lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the Rohini Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,350.
Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 10 weeks.
With the right equipment Vasanthi could join the school sports day. It would change everyday life for the whole family.
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 $1,350 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• adapted tricycle: $1,250
• Fitting and training sessions: $70
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Updates from Tejaswini
Update from Rohini: the first invoice got paid this week. We're at 3% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($10 in total) I made the first payment toward adapted tricycle. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Quick update: $35 raised so far (3%). I met with the supplier and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them. - Tejaswini

Rooting for you, Tejaswini. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Gothenburg.
