No, you are not seeing double. We have 2 brand new Kia Carnivals which are now booked in for conversions (our first is underway!). They will provide transportation for those affected by high level Spinal Cord Injury, which will be at no cost to the individual.
This is absolutely huge. Transportation, or lack of transportation, is one of the biggest hurdles that a person with a SCI will face when accessing services, attending medical appointments and even seeing friends and family. Although vehicle modification is possible for some, this is an expensive and often drawn out process, which renders most reliant on wheelchair accessible taxi’s, which are not always available and come at an additional cost to the individual.
Whether it be medical appointments, rehabilitation or a weekend catch up with family and loved ones. WE CAN HELP.
This is our first opportunity as an organisation to really make a difference and when I say ‘we’, I mean every single person who has donated to or supported our cause. We are excited and honoured to be able to provide this service for those that are in need and we extend our gratitude to the community for helping us achieve this. You are the embodiment of everything we are trying to achieve and proof that we are Stronger Together.
