Maclaren Major Elite (Single Buggy) - Designed for Children with Special Needs to approx 8/9 years old and is registered with with MHRA as a Class I Medical Device for Special Needs. The Major Elite has been developed to meet the demand for an everyday buggy for children, who as a result of disability, have a need for a portable. parent-wheeled transport.

The Baby Jogger Independence Advance& ;is from approx age 4 to 10 years old& ;with maximum carrying weight 100lbs (7 stone/ 45kilos) and the Baby Jogger Freedom Advance Mobility (to 200lbs) from age 10 years to adult.

Traditional wheelchairs are far too expensive for rough and muddy roads. but these pushchairs provide a comfortable and smooth ride and people love them as they don't look 'medical' but are friendly and inviting for all ages. Baby Jogger will bring smiles to everyone by providing the opportunity to go for long walks. hiking or even to the beach.
And finally. after working on this for a long time. we are now able to offer a double pushchair that can be adapted for one or two children with special needs. The Mountain Buggy Terrain Double has many Special Needs options including a deeper seat unit. tall sunhood and extended footplates in either single or double versions. The twin buggy is suitable from birth and can be adapted for children up to approx 7 years old (max weight 30kg per seat). TwinsUK are the ONLY company that provide this unique option within UK/Europe. We also stock the Mountain Buggy Terrain XL, which is a single special needs pushchair for children from 4 years old. The Mountain Buggy Terrain XL is fitted with a full set of accessories to adapt the buggy for a child with special needs from 4 years to approx 9 years old.
Most children grow out of pushchairs because the distance between the base of the seat and the footplate is too small for their longer leg. For most makes of pushchair the increased weight is also a limiting factor but not so for the superior build quality of the Mountain Buggy with a maximum seat capacity of 35kg. Accessories included are: Higher and deeper seat unit, Extended footplate (suitable for older. taller children and 4 levels of adjustment), Tall Sun Hood (provides extra head height suitable for use to approx aged 8 years), Larger Raincover (to fit over extended footplate).
