Hey,
I'm heading off to uni next year and for me to be completely independent around the campus I'm going to need some emotion wheels, the thing is... the cost.
I have heard you can get some funding from charities and I'm having difficulty finding some. Anyone had any experience from funding charities, or know any which may be useful?
If not does anyone know where I can get some cheap?

Thanks, Nina

Nina, you can start by contacting the Travis Roy Foundation. They grant individual grants quarterly. And they only pertain to SCI's only. If not granted the first quarter, keep the process open as you maybe selected next quarter. I didn't get my first request selected and am on the list for the quarterly selection next week. This is just a start, hope it helps. mark

Contact Aspire http://www.aspire.org.uk/ I know someone who got E-Motion wheels through their Human Needs Grant (you are in the UK right?)
