Unfortunately this project was not successful.

Hi my name is Carrie, as some of you may know I have been off sick from work since May 2023. I was diagnosed with a spinal compression.

  • Since being diagnosed they found that my spinal cord has been damaged. I have had surgery and now have a metal cage in my neck. This will prevent me getting worse. However, my symptoms will not get better. I have limited use of my hands,neurological pain and have trouble walking. 
  • PIP will only give me standard rate mobilty as I can plan a journey and can walk a little. Therefore I do not qualify for help getting a mobility scooter. 
  • Please help me get one I feel isolated and missing out on life being stuck the house all the time for fear of falling when I go out. 

Got an idea like this?
