The children being measured and testing equipment

Shadrick and his Mum

Measuring Hildah

Hildah concentrating on toy while in a spare chair

Now the for the big moment -
Hildah being prepared by physiotherapist Harrison to help her stand

Hurrah- she is standing in her Star Stander!
Hidah practising taking weight through her legs while the physiotherapist adjusts her feet



Joseph and Mum

Measuring Raphael


Checking Raphael and his chair


and making adjustments to his chair

Bending the side flaps back
and designing a removable base to make the whole chair higher
with the advantage of more stability


Once the testing had been done it was time for adjustments to all equipment
- the great advantage of using cardboard is that adjustments can be made very easily if needed to change the position of the child using the equipment
and as the child grows
