Fundraising for a motorised wheelchair attachment

Hi, my name is Laura. I am 33 years old and have a Medical Alert Dog in training.

I hoping to improve my quality of life. I am currently missing out on aspects of society. I cannot go out of the house alone, as I still rely on help from others. This is affecting my mental health. Having more opportunities would make a huge difference to my life and boost my confidence. It means more doors would be open to me and I’d feel more integrated in society. I could finally make my presence known, and not be hidden away.

I currently rely on help when out of the house using my wheelchair on longer/difficult trips because I am limited by distance and/or terrain. The motorised attachment glides over fields and rocky paths, so I could go out for lovely/longer outings with ease.

Therefore, I am looking to purchase a Triride front power attachment. This is controlled by handlebars and clamps onto the front of the wheelchair and pulls me along.

Ultimately, the power attachment will enable me to live a similar life to the one I had before my health declined.
