I’m a multiply disabled non-binary person trying to raise funds to buy a powered wheelchair. There’s no way I can afford it alone, but I’m hoping that if enough people share this it might be possible. No pressure to donate if you can’t spare anything, but I would really appreciate if you could reblog this.
A power chair would massively improve my quality of life. Currently, I can only go outside when someone else is there to push my manual wheelchair for me, as my arms are too weak to self-propel. When I try and push myself I usually end up dislocating my elbows and the joints in my hands, which is very painful. I often go Monday to Friday without going outside at all, as my partner works full time and can usually only take me outside on weekends. A power chair would mean that I could go outside, by myself, whenever I wanted. It would be completely life changing to have the freedom and independance to go outside without having to depend on anyone else.
Please share & donate if you can spare anything at all.
As of right now, 26/06/17, we have £1889 left to raise. To break that down a bit, I’ve worked out that in order to raise that in the 24 days we have left, we’ll need to raise about £75 a day. Yesterday we only raised £18. My JustGiving page currently has almost 5000 views – if each of those people had given the minimum donation (£2 on JG) we would already have raised the price of the wheelchair. Small donations make a really big difference, even just 50p sent to my PayPal, it all adds up.
If you can share this post – here, on fb, on twitter, wherever – it’ll make a big difference. The more people see this, the more people will think about donating. Thank you to everyone who’s already donated and shared this post, you’re helping me get my life back xxx
