Yogesh lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Gaya Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $450. His current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks. With the right equipment Yogesh could attend work interviews. 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $450 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $350 • Fitting and training sessions: $50 • Delivery and set-up: $50 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
