Your impact
The money you raise will help us reach even more young wheelchair users by funding mobility equipment, life skills training and opportunities for young people to reach their full potential.
- £110 could pay for additional parts to extend the life of a young person's wheelchair and 'grow' the equipment as a child's needs change.
- £209 could enable a young person to attend an activity session where they can make new friends and build their confidence.
- £347 could fund a child to attend a Wheelchair Skills Training session and develop vital skills to help them use their wheelchair safely and confidently.
- £1,300 could enable Whizz Kidz to provide for an adapted trike for a young wheelchair user, giving them a safe way to play and have fun with other children.
Together, we can create opportunities for young wheelchair users to get the equipment, skills and confidence to go further.

Join Team Whizz Kidz so more children like Ethan can go further
Ethan is a bright, confident 5-year-old. He was born with a rare congenital condition called Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC), which means he has very limited control of his joints. Whizz-Kidz provided Ethan with a power chair. Now, he can keep up with his younger brother, enjoy family and school outings and be as mischievous as his friends.
