New Wheels, New Adventures for Jack 💙

When 9-year-old Jack’s specialised pram was stolen from his front porch, the story touched hearts across Australia. After viewers of A Current Affair rallied together to raise funds for a replacement, we were honoured to step in and help Jack find his perfect new wheels.

In partnership with Child First Therapy Prue Nix (OT), Eliza Cavalletto (PT), and Astris PME’s own Chris Simpkin, Jack was able to trial a range of options - and found his match in the KUKINI™ by Akces-Med.

Now, with a brand-new set of wheels and a whole lot of love behind him, Jack is ready to roll again. 💫

Last week, our incredible team came together for two powerful days of training, professional development, collaboration, and self-growth.

Investing in our people is one of the most important things we do - because when our team grows, the outcomes for our clients grow too.

✅ Sharing knowledge
✅ Strengthening connections
✅ Building new skills
✅ Aligning our purpose
✅ And having a lot of fun along the way!

We’re proud to have such passionate, committed individuals who show up every day to make a difference for the clients and communities we serve. With renewed energy, stronger teamwork, and fresh ideas, we’re excited to continue delivering the very best in assistive technology, support, and service.

Here’s to learning, improving, and moving forward — together.

Our team had a fantastic time at the Canberra Disability Expo earlier this month! It was amazing to connect with so many people, share our passion for 'Improving Lives,' and showcase our great range of products – with lots of interest in the Quickie Wheelchairs Q50R folding power chair.

We loved meeting new faces, catching up with familiar ones, and chatting all things mobility and assistive technology. Thank you to everyone who stopped by – we can’t wait to see you again next year!

This one melted our hearts – for Book Week, the daughter of Brad, one of our Specialist Consultants here at Astris PME, decided the BEST character to dress up as was… her dad! 👨‍🔧💙

Flat cap ✔️
Astris PME uniform ✔️
Big smile ✔️

She absolutely nailed the look – and we think she’s already got the 'Improving Lives' spirit down pat! 🛠️🚐 Who knows, maybe she’ll be one of our future Specialist Consultants helping clients across Australia.

R U OK? – Today and Every Day 🌼

At Astris PME, we believe in looking out for one another – not just on R U OK? Day, but every day. 💛
Sometimes, asking “Are you OK?” can make a real difference to someone who might be struggling.

If you’re not sure where to start, here are 4 simple steps to guide an R U OK? conversation:

1️⃣ Ask – start the conversation with care
2️⃣ Listen – with an open mind and without judgement
3️⃣ Encourage Action – support them to take the next step
4️⃣ Check In – keep the conversation going

Small conversations can have a big impact. Take a moment today to check in with a friend, family member or colleague – you never know how much it could mean. 💛

Cody rolled up to the Wests Tigers game in style in his brand-new Quickie Wheelchairs IRIS Tilt with Spex Seating System 🧡🖤

Not only did he cheer on his team as their #1 fan, but the Tigers also gave him a special moment on the big screen at the game!

We love seeing Cody enjoying his new custom wheels🏉
