Theraplay Trikes: Enhancing Mobility for Disabled Children

For children with disabilities, mobility and independence are vital to their development and quality of life. Theraplay Trikes provide a fun and engaging way for children to experience the joy of movement while improving their physical abilities and confidence. These specially designed tricycles offer a safe, supportive, and adaptable riding experience tailored to meet the unique needs of every child.

Designed for Every Child

Theraplay Trikes are engineered with inclusive mobility in mind. Whether a child requires additional postural support, specialized seating, or easy-to-use controls, these tricycles cater to a variety of physical abilities. Adjustable components ensure that the trike grows with the child, providing long-term usability and comfort.

Each trike features:

Customizable support – Options such as trunk supports, footplates, and headrests ensure stability.
Adjustable seating and handlebars – Allowing for the perfect fit as the child grows.
Parental or therapist steering assist – Providing control and safety while promoting independent riding skills.

The Benefits of Adaptive Cycling

Cycling is more than just a recreational activity; it plays a crucial role in developing motor skills, coordination, and muscle strength. Theraplay Trikes encourage children to engage in physical exercise, helping to improve:

Balance and coordination – Strengthening core muscles and motor functions.
Confidence and independence – Giving children the ability to explore their surroundings safely.
Social interaction – Allowing kids to ride alongside friends and family, fostering inclusion.

A Step Towards Greater Freedom

With Theraplay Trikes, children can experience newfound freedom in movement, whether at home, in school, or on outdoor adventures. These trikes empower children to embrace active play, building strength and confidence in an enjoyable way.

Available Now for Young Explorers

Theraplay Trikes are available from ARB Mobility, who provide trike clinics in children’s schools as well as assessments at home to ensure the perfect fit for every child.

Additionally, many charities are willing to assist with the purchase of a Theraplay Trike, helping to make mobility and independence more accessible to families.

I can't praise this fantastic local business highly enough for the exceptional customer service they provide. Alex and Hailey are both very helpful, friendly and honest. The setting up of the insurance and added extras are most appreciated. Many thanks, I will highly recommend you to others.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent Customer Service from Alex, Hayley and Mike at ARB Mobility. They couldn't have done more to help me.  My broken elderly Rollator was soon sorted and back in use again. It's such a 'find' to have someone who can mend things. They are knowledgeable and in tune with all manner of mobility issues and have a well stocked showroom catering for a broad range of needs. The scooter we chose and ordered was available for us to collect within 48 hours, all set up and ready to go. We can't thank them enough for all their help and can thoroughly recommend ARB Mobility of Ruishton to anyone who needs any of theirmobil

Since having bought my mobility scooter they have been first class at helping with advice and dealing with any problems I have. I would recommend them as 1st class and very prompt.

I was looking at getting a top of the range power wheelchair with an NHS voucher and top up. Alex arranged a home visit with the company, they were both friendly but professional and personable, as a disabled female, it can be quite daunting to have two men come to your home but I can hand on heart say what lovely chaps! Together they talked me through the benefit of this wheelchair but also any cons. I was in the process of arranging the money when Alex contacted me to say an ex demo one was available. It was a few £k cheaper but it was almost brand spanking new and would be modified FOC to my specs. Alex and the supplier came to adjust it to me on delivery and made sure I was happy with controls, how it worked and that everything was comfortable before they left. Alex, you’re an absolute legend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was clear from the outset that ARB Mobility had an impressive, wide range of mobility scooters on offer, and in a very short time identified a scooter that suited my needs. The proprietors were kind, courteous and above all, friendly. Sterling all round service! I would most certainly recommend this company. Thank you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex and the team are very local to us and he is a great guy to help out when needed. My wife and I are relatively new to this scooter business but in a short time we have found that there seems to be quite a few unreliable suppliers online with very poor customer service. That is the opposite of what we have experienced with Alex and we don't mind paying a bit extra compared to online when we get such kind, reliable service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We needed a mobility scooter and wheelchair but we didn’t know which ones would be most suitable. Alex was very helpful in helping us decide on the best options and we are pleased that we have bought from him. Wonderful service and no hard sell - he was just trying to do the best for us. Thanks Alex.
