Many families with one or two children who have a disability that affects their mobility require a special needs pushchair. We have a selection of single and double buggies that are suitable for families looking for the freedom to get out and about with their children.

special needs and is suitable from around 2 years old to approx 10 years

The Major Elite special needs pushchair has been developed to meet the
demand for an everyday buggy for a child, who as a result of a
disability, has a need for a portable, parent-wheeled transport. The
buggy can be supplied as a basic model or as a package, with the addition of a
full pack of coordinating accessories including sun canopy, raincover, padded seat liner, footmuff, lateral supports, chest pad and shopping basket.
After working on this for over two years, we now offer a double

deeper, hammock-style seat unit, tall sunhood and single extended footplate that allow for taller and/or older children to be accomodated. The twin buggy is suitable from birth (with carrycot), from 3 months in the standard seat and can be
adapted for children from 3 years to approx 9 years and even small adults. TwinsUK

Tested to British Standards and beyond, the buggy can hold one or two children up to 30kg each in the deep seats and 15kg in the standard seat (suitable from 3 months-4 years). It is also registered with the MHRA as a Class I Medical Device.
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. The Mountain Buggy will bring smiles to everyone by providing the opportunity
to go for long walks. hiking or even to the beach.
