Choosing the right aids for a child with complex needs can make a massive difference to daily life for them- and for everyone who supports them. 

Inevitably children grow, conditions evolve. That means what works one day may not the next, they may need additional or different support for an activity.

We are central to helping meet those needs.

We give Occupational Therapists and parents a single source they can trust to advise, assess and support the child.

We've developed a range of unique holistic solutions work individually or combined to help make daily life better- 24 hours a day.

Our stairclimber can attach to a wheelchair or have an integral seat to make going up and down stairs safe. Our revolutionary Universal Back clip-fits to the unit to correctly support the child as needed and can be easily altered as the child grows.

To ensure optimal comfort in the wheelchair- or anywhere else the child may be sat- our vacuum posture cushions mould precisely as required. And it empowers parents to infinitely vary the shape according to what’s needed.

The diversity of size and shape address every eventuality, from an arm support through to a mattress.

At bath-time, our Aqua Liberty takes the posture cushions to another level, supporting, cushioning in the bath without the constraints of a sling or a carer holding them.

If anxiety, hyperactivity are issues, our Gravity Chair provides a calming environment that is proven to enable the child to engage.

“It’s about putting what each child needs at the heart of what we do. That’s why we offer free, no obligation assessments, so everyone involved is comfortable with what will work, without pressure. We have carefully chosen our products so that there is a synergy between them, covering all aspects of daily activity. As far as possible they evolve with the child, so parents do not have to keep learning how to use new equipment- one less thing to worry about!”

Peter Wingrave, AAT Director

We have a heritage stretching back over 20 years, working with Occupational Therapists, education and healthcare professionals and parents.

Knowing how difficult daily life can be without the right support, we endeavour to undertake the initial assessment within two weeks and has a nationwide team of assessment support professionals to manage the whole process, from assessment to delivery of the equipment and training in its correct use.
