Oliver G

Trike to improve Oliver's muscle power.....

When little Oliver's mother wrote to us she told us she was desperate for him to take part in family activities. This lovely 4-year-old boy has a diagnosis of 4-limb cerebral palsy and is fed through a gastrostomy. He had been assessed in a specialist trike, which provided full postural support for him and positioned his legs correctly to facilitate independent pedalling and to improve muscle power for his arms and legs.

Whilst the family were able to make a contribution towards the cost, funding the entire cost was beyond their means so they contacted us asking if we could help in any way.

Lifeline 4 Kids had no hesitation in helping Oliver and his family writes:-

".....as promised a lovely photo of Oliver on his new trike. As you can see, he really loves riding around on it. It is all thanks to Lifeline 4 Kids.

Thank you very much for making our son very happy!!

Kind regards,

Sarah, Paul and Oliver G" xxx

You can see from the fabulous photo how happy Oliver is with his new trike. May he continue to enjoy.....
