car with a ramp at back

Waikato

Bernard is 48yrs old and is in a wheelchair after getting pneumonia and spinal meningitis at 5 days old. He needs 24hr care.

Our wheelchair van with a hoist in it was stolen 18 months ago. It was insured, but because it was 29 years old, the payout was only a few thousand dollars, and wouldn’t even cover the cost of a hoist.

We are trying to get money for a car with a ramp at the back.

Bernard is my son, he is looked after by myself and my husband.

Use of funds

ANY money that is given will go towards car with ramp and maintenance for the vehicle for Bernard.
