Maclaran major pram for sale

Sun, 05 Sep 2010 17:03:20 +0000

Blue maclaren major pram for sale, in good used condition. £100, with all money going towards the redecoration of Mattys new bedroom
I'm in Sheffield and would prefer it to be collected, but if you want to arrange your own courier, with a mutually agreed collection time, then I don't mind wrapping it in black sacks, or possibly even a box if I can find one big enough

Car seat safety clips

Do any members have issues with children undoing there seat belt in the car?

We have been offered some discounted buckle guards which stop children getting out of the seatbelt easily.We would have to commit to 15 of these at £4.25 each so if anybody is intrested please let me know and if we have enough i would buy them in bulk!

These are normally sold through the manufacturer for £13.00 each

The seller has also indicated that he will also be able to consider other special needs items at discounts which makes a change

So if anybody is intrested please let me know here.

Shoes

Sun, 29 Aug 2010 15:11:49 +0000

Hello, I'm new on here so apologies if I've posted in the wrong place. I'm after a supplier of wide fitting shoes. My child no longer needs (or qualifies for) piedro boots but doesn't fit into the widest fitting shoes in Clarks and it's a battle to find her anything to fit. I have 4 days left to find her some black school shoes. I'm not looking for piedro boots but normal shoes to fit her (very wide) feet. Can anyone help me please?

any special needs trikes for sale please?

Mon, 23 Aug 2010 22:01:42 +0000

Hi, We are looking for a trike for our daughter who is 3 but the height of a 5 year old (inside leg just over 17 inches). Ideally we'd like one with a parent pole, seat with supports and pedal shoes (this is probably the wrong term) but would consider anything that fitted her.

If you do have a trike not used and seeking a new home then please let us know as would love to get Abi pedaling before the colder weather.

Huge thanks for reading
Sue

pop up men toy

Thu, 19 Aug 2010 08:10:59 +0000

I found these toys in the entertainer the other day, not sure if anyone else will be interested but we used to have them in a sensory group we attended, they are great for developing fine motor skills as you start off just randomly hitting them to watch them jump, then progress to picking them up between finger and thumb.

heavy duty fold-out chair?

Wed, 18 Aug 2010 19:00:24 +0000
Has anyone seen or bought a very heavy duty camping-type chair? My daughter wants one for outside the stables but wants to be able to take it with us in the car as well (she is trying to use her frame more than her wheelchair now but needs to sit quite often)

FOR SALE - CHILDS RGK TITANIUM WHEELCHAIR

Thu, 01 Jul 2010 22:09:58 +0000
This wheelchair belonged to my daughter, who has now very sadly outgrown the wonderful chair.

RGK design fab wheelchairs for all ages, their chairs are used by TEAM GBs basketball team.

The chair is titanium, which makes it so lightweight, and easy to pick up and put into the car. The frame and wheels are red, it has suspension and flashing front wheels. It has anti-tips, and everything including the handles are adjustable, or if you want you can remove the handles.

The chair should do a child from the age approx 5 - 10 years, who does not require too much additional support. It cost me nearly £2000 new from the company.

Please email me for any additional information and pictures. I would like to get about £750, which sounds alot of money, but considering the chairs condition, design and lightweight titanium frame and accessories, is a fair price.
