Weʼve raised £2,390 to A new power chair to help me remain as independent as possible both indoors & outdoors after my amputation

Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
Hi all, I hope you don’t mind me putting this out here.
As most of you know I’m going to be having my right leg amputated in the not too distant future.
Due to this I won’t be able to use my crutches indoors or outdoors at all for a while due to the risks of falling etc & because I have CRPS in my left hand/ arm as well I’m struggling more & more to self propel in my wheel current chair .
So what I’m looking at doing is to hopefully raise enough money to purchase a lightweight / foldable power chair so I can still remain as mobile / independent as possible indoors & outdoors after my surgery & until I’m hopefully 🤞🏻suitable for a prosthetic leg .
These chairs are quite expensive & im unable to get one through the mobilty scheme as I already have a left foot adapted car,
So I’ve been looking around & the sort of chair I’m looking for is a compact & lightweight style that can be used indoors & also fold up compactly to fit into a average car boot.
They seem to be around the £2300 price range
So if I can raise some money towards this that would be truly amazing & what would be even better is if I could raise more than I need & I can give it to some of the charities that help support people like me, like CRPS, amputation etc
Thanks for taking the time to read
Love Clare xx

4 years agoWhat can I say, I honestly can not begin to thank you all so very much for every penny you have donated to my cause, when it was suggested I set up this fund raiser I was very reluctant to do it, embarrassed even, letting everyone know what’s been going on etc. But the love & support everyone has given me is unbelievable, I am honestly so touched. Thank you each and everyone of you for your kindness, support & generosity, it means the world to me ❤️❤️
