By supporting a child's body, a standing frame removes barriers, allowing them to focus on the fun of play rather than the effort of positioning.

Most of us don't really think about standing and the benefits, but standing is crucial for child development because it builds core strength, improves bone density, aids digestion, promotes healthy hip formation, enhances alertness for social interaction, and supports respiratory and vocal development.
That's why APT standing frames are so important.

The purpose of postural support equipment is to assist an appropriate position that enables function, participation and activity.
That's exactly what APT equipment is doing.

This year we will have made over 240 APT devices for children living with physical disabilities.
Some children have travelled over 250km to us to get the equipment they desperately need but is not available in the place they live.
With an estimated 114,500 children born in Kenya each year with cerebral palsy, and nearly half of those unable to sit or stand unsupported, this equipment is essential and life changing. Without it, children spend their days and nights in a lying position, unable to take part in family or community activities, go to school or play with toys.

APT equipment changes all that. It gets children into an upright position and enables them to enjoy life with family and friends, helping them to develop emotionally, socially and physically.

Chatting like this in an upright position wasn't possible before today.
It's amazing the difference an APT chair makes to children and their caregivers.

If you are wondering what gift to give this Christmas, perhaps you could give the gift of a chair and enable a child to socialise with family and friends this Christmas?

We take any and every opportunity to talk about APT and the difference it makes to a child’s life.

We are thrilled to announce our partnership with Icfem Dreamland Mission Hospital.
Today marks a significant milestone as we kick off our training, paving the way for APT devices to be locally available to children in western Kenya for the very first time.
This partnership will drastically reduce the need for families to travel hundreds of kilometres to Njoro to access essential equipment.
We believe that every child deserves the best care and support, and this collaboration is a huge step towards making that a reality.

We are excited about the positive impact this partnership will have and look forward to the journey ahead as we work together to enhance the lives of children and bring hope and support to families in need.

Thank you CBM Kenya CBM UK for helping to make this happen.
