Hi; I am Matt and I’m a teenager from the UK - I love bands, hanging with my friends and engaging with art through scrapbooking and digital art. I am studying Business in college and I am highly passionate about using my qualifications to advocate for others through campaigning for human rights.

However, I struggle to engage with my interests because my chronic pain linked to suspected Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I have had regular joint pain and fatigue for years now, however, I have found that over the last year my pain has gotten so much worse. I have to regularly use my cane and other mobility aids to keep my body stable and strong but I dont think what I can afford suffices.

I pay for what I can using my allowance for being in care but i cannot work as I am so exhausted from my current day to day activities, and struggle with CPTSD flare ups in retail environments.

I would use all money donated towards a rollator, some support pillows and glasses with tints to help my migraines. any support or shares are very appreciated!
