    Weʼve raised £10 to help buy a second hand powered wheelchair

    Church Stretton, United Kingdom
    Funded on Friday, 7th April 2017

    Don't have time to donate right now?

    Story

    I've been ill for 24 years with a neurological illness. My muscles don't work properly. The O.T. says I need a powered wheelchair. I can walk short distances, but then my muscles tire and i have to lie down again. I have used a mobility scooter to get around in recent years, but over the last 18 months I've not been so good. I can only get out the house if a carer drives me door to door and I use a high backed garden chair to sit in so i have full back and head support. I really want my independence back. I need an adapted wheelchair: a Sunrise Medical Quickie Salsa Mini, with a tilt option, a higher back rest and supportive head rest. I now know the cost of hiring or buying a new one is more than I can afford. But a second hand one will be cheaper in the long run. I started fundraising on here in February, when I thought I could afford to hire a non- custom cheaper wheelchair. But I now know I need this custom chair. Thank you to the amazing folks who already donated to help me. Thanks to you I have £100 towards a wheelchair, and £825 to get my endocrine illnesses treated. I am going to see what I can sell, and make jewellery to raise funds too. But if anyone new wants to donate, I will be most grateful. Even just a £1 donation is great, it all adds up. Please share my link with your friends. Thank you very much. Have a lovely day.

    Great people make things happen

    Do you know anyone in need or maybe want to help a local community cause?

    Create you own page and donʼt let that cause go unfunded!
