Desperately Need Equipment for my 3 year old sister with celebral palsy

Hi everyone,
My little sister (3 yrs old) has celebral palsy, lives in Africa, and has no assistive equipment to support her. My mum has just brought her to the UK to visit me from Africa and I desperately want them to go back with some assistive equipment but don't know where to look. She needs things like a neck brace, orthopaedic shoes, etc.
Does anyone one have any equipment their child has outgrown? Or can anyone please tell me where to find used equipments at an affordable price?
I would greatly appreciate any response, thanks in advance.
