£0 remaining for a stairlift
A mid forties working adult had a stroke resulting in him being hospitalised for five months, suddenly becoming a full-time wheelchair user and being unable to continue working, so is now unemployed. This dad is also a carer for his young autistic son. His wife, the mother of their son, had to give up her job as a fully trained nurse, due to a cancer diagnosis. A stair lift is essential to access the upstairs bathroom (instead of being humiliated with using a commode), and ease the pressure on his wife who is now his carer.
This mid forties lady has a profound learning disability, Rett’s syndrome, and is a full-time wheelchair user. Her mum, who is in her seventies, is her main carer and is struggling to push her daughter in the chair. This power pack will help both the cared for and the carer, and prevent them becoming prisoners in their own house.
