Certain organisations recycle or refurbish used medical equipment, including hospital beds, and provide them to individuals who need them. Availability of equipment depends on donations, and funding and there may be a waiting list.
 

Crutches, on the other hand, are perhaps one of the most visible signs of mobility challenges. They offer crucial support for those who find walking difficult due to injuries or surgeries. The first time one learns to navigate the world with crutches can be daunting. The initial wobbles, the struggles to maintain balance, and the feeling of vulnerability can be overwhelming. Yet, with practice, individuals often find a rhythm. Crutches become extensions of their bodies, tools that allow them to traverse their environment while healing.
