can anyone tell me if and how to go about fundraising, do you have to be a charity organisation ect ect

Not fundraising, but a) check you are getting all the benefits you are entitled to, and b) ask Social Services for a Carer's Assessment of YOUR needs as a carer, and c) see if you can get an Occupational Therapist assessment for aids which would help.

And d) look in the library for a book called 'Grants for Individuals in Need'

Also, if there is equipment which you only need (or hope to need!) for a limited period of time, then you can borrow from the Red Cross. So, you could borrow from there while you wait for OT to say what would be helpful and organise its provision.
