Here is a a quote from an enquiry from a mum looking to help her son get active asking if we can assist….

“My son Joshua was diagnosed just over 2 years ago with a brain tumour and is coming to the end of his 18 months of chemotherapy. He has never walked as the tumour is sat on his balance, but he can cruise furniture, climb, crawl and walk holding hands. he has asked a couple of times for a bike but as you can guess we havent been able to find anything suitable. we would all love to go out as a family for a bike ride.”

With requests of this nature we dispatch one of our independent assessors depending on location in the UK, they will then carry out an assessment at the child’s home looking for all possibile adaptions.  The report is then forwarded to CFC HQ and the trike is ordered.  When completed the assessor returns to see the child where the trike is fitted for reach and saddle height etc. plus instruction is given on use of any special adaptions to the child and parent.

To apply for a bike or trike from CFC click on Bike Application on the menu bar.
