Our Directors Anthony and Chloe recently made the journey to Cannock in Staffordshire to spend the day with the team at Newlife, the charity for disabled children.

As Newlife's preferred supplier for all buggies, powered and manual wheelchairs, our get-togethers are incredibly important to us to continue our strong working relationship which helps change lives for the better.

It's always such a joy to visit Newlife's HQ and witness the amazing energy that the team all have. The hard work and dedication that goes into fundraising via events and the retail stores, which in turn funds a wide range of support services for children with disabilities, is incredibly inspiring.

We are very proud and privileged to be part of Newlife's process to help make a difference for children and their families.
