Weʼve raised £1,715 to replace Chloe's power base wheelchair
- Brighton, UK
- Funded on Monday, 18th February 2019

Story
Chloe is now 26 yrs old. She is provided with a manual wheelchair base by the NHS & she has her own moulded chair made especially which fits onto this. As Chloe grew it became necessary to purchase a powered base , 8 yrs ago. Compatible with her moulded chair, this base makes it easier to drive Chloe up into her car, as well as up hills, greatly improving her accessibility.
This base is now beyond repair & naively we didn't expect to be replacing it yet! (we are told its done very well for its age!) A new one is £4,500 but a local firm have offered to sell us a demo model for £1,200. This was wonderful news when they were unable to fix hers!
It was suggested by someone to put our need into a just giving page so friends and family could help us.
Many of you have supported Chloe in the past & we hesitate to ask but every £5 donation would help us provide this for Chloe.
Thank you so much on behalf of Chloe

6 years agoWow we are totally overwhelmed by your generous giving dear friends and family! I was in tears yesterday when we hit the total by a sizeable gift to make Chloe’s wheelchair happen. Every donation has meant so much. We feel very loved. Chloe is at home with us this w.e. so we will celebrate. Any last minute/ future gifts will go directly to “The Chloe Bedford Trust” for ongoing maintenance costs of Chloe’s chair. With our special love and thanks to everyone of you! Paul, Maggie and Chloe Xx
