Whizz Kidz
Area: Carlisle
Purpose/aim of your organisation:
As the UK’s leading charity supporting young wheelchair users up to 25 years old, we provide them with the equipment and skills they need to live life as independently as possible. To enjoy all of the opportunities and activities that so many others take for granted ‐ at home, at school, at work and beyond.
List of activities and/or services provided by your organisation:
Provide mobility equipment: such as wheelchairs, trikes, buggies and sports wheelchairs for disabled children up to the age of 18.
Recreational Equipment
Whizz Kidz regrets that with immediate effect, and for the foreseeable future, we will be pausing applications for trikes, sports chairs, other recreational equipment and buggies apart from those for children completely unable to walk with very complex needs. This action is being taken due to our rapidly increasing application rate along with consideration of how and where our clinical teams can best use their skills.
Whizz Kidz Programmes: For ages 8-25: Our programmes are activities where young wheelchair users can take part in activities such as sports, drama, film and gaming design, days out and loads more!
Wheelchair Skills Training: For ages 2-25: these sessions will teach young disabled people skills to help them feel safe, develop independence and confidence in their wheelchair.
Work Placements and Employability Skills Days: For ages 16-25: these will help young people learn valuable and essential skills to build their CV and prepare them for the world of work.
