Established over 30 years ago, Newlife support disabled and terminally ill children across the UK to get the best possible start in life, and to have the opportunity to fulfil their potential. One of the ways in which Newlife does this is by helping families to access to the specialist equipment that they need. 

Astonishingly, only two in five families say they have all the equipment needed for their disabled child, and so Newlife’s mission is to change that. 

Independence Mobility have been appointed Newlife’s preferred supplier for powered and manual wheelchairs, beds, and buggies, offering a range of models to accommodate basic, moderate and complex needs. 

As part of the grant application process, Independence Mobility will be carrying out assessments to prescribe the most suitable items of equipment to help families secure funding. The team will also be looking after delivery, set up, and ongoing maintenance. This ability to offer a white glove service, along with the team’s experience and knowledge of mobility solutions, made Independence Mobility an ideal partner for Newlife. 

Independence Mobility’s Director, Anthony Mitchell, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to have been appointed a Newlife preferred supplier. We have recently celebrated our 20th anniversary, and this opportunity is testament to the hard work of the team who have helped grow the business to be able to support such a worthwhile cause. The whole Independence Mobility team are incredibly passionate about helping to improve young lives for the better with the provision of mobility equipment, and working closely with Newlife allows us to continue to do that on an even greater level.” 

Newlife’s Head of Charitable Services, Becky Smith, said: “Newlife is excited to maintain its partnership with Independence Mobility as one of our preferred suppliers, allowing us to continue providing children and young people with the essential equipment they need to enhance their quality of life and reach their full potential.”
