💛 Thank you for making to Adultz North such a special day!

You want the very best for your child, comfort, freedom, confidence and the chance to take part in everyday life. Finding the right equipment can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to figure it out alone.

At Jiraffe, we’re here to guide you with solutions that support your child’s posture, mobility and independence.
It was wonderful meeting you at our stand, showing you the new Rifton Stander 3, the Pacer, the Jenx Dreama, and chatting through what might help your child most. Hearing your stories and goals is exactly why we do what we do.

A heartfelt thank you to Lori Potts for her clear and reassuring seminar on supported standing and stepping, giving families practical understanding and hope for what’s possible.

👉 If you asked for more information, our friendly team will be in touch soon.

🦒 Every step forward matters.

Today we were so proud to support the amazing MOVE Programme Conference in Reading as Platinum Sponsors!

The event was full of inspiration, from hands-on workshops to powerful stories about how the MOVE approach helps children with physical disabilities gain confidence and independence through movement.

Our very own Laura Thompson led a session called “Step with Me,” showing how adaptive walking frames can make a real difference in a child’s daily life.

We also loved meeting everyone who stopped by our stand to explore the Rifton Adaptive Tricycle, Pacer Gait Trainer, and Stander, equipment designed to help every child move, play, and grow.
Together, we’re building a world where every child has the chance to move toward greater independence. 💪

What's your favourite piece of equipment that creates inclusion and independence?

Helping your child thrive can feel like a big challenge, but the right support makes all the difference. At the Association of Paediatric Chartered Physiotherapists Conference, we saw so many inspiring examples of how paediatric physiotherapists are helping children with postural care every day.

One highlight was ‘Pedal Power’, a poster we presented by Abigail showing how adaptive cycling in a specialist school can give children more confidence, independence and joy. It’s a great example of the creative approaches that can open up new opportunities for children.

We loved connecting with the professionals and sharing ideas that can help children reach their full potential. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, we can’t wait to continue supporting you and your children next year! Our Vision is A Bright and Inclusive Future for all children. 🦒💛

Jiraffe is open and here for you. 💛

We’re still here - fully operational and continuing to supply the same high-quality, specialist products to children, families, therapists, and professionals across the UK.

We are fully supporting our friends and colleagues at Jenx following the recent announcement from our parent company, Jenx Ltd. They are currently still in consultation on a proposal to close manufacturing operations, this does not affect Jiraffe’s day-to-day work.

Whatever the outcome of the consultation, Jiraffe will remain committed to supporting our UK customers into the future. Our team remains passionate and committed to what matters most: helping children with complex disabilities live happy, inclusive lives.
