✨ Some time ago, we had the pleasure of visiting Amelie and her family at home to capture a few special moments with our maxi therapy chair.

Amelie is 15 years old, a true horse lover, and lives with infantile cerebral palsy and tetraplegic spasticity. That’s why it meant all the more to us to see how comfortable she felt in the maxi. 💙

The shooting took place in her cozy room and the family kitchen – and thanks to its subtle design, the maxi. blended in perfectly with the home environment. Amelie and her family loved it too:

“With the grey cover the chair looks really stylish – and it’s super comfy too,” says Amelie.

Even though her dog and Shetland pony couldn’t join the photos, her wooden horse and one of her three big brothers made sure to be part of the fun 🐕🐴✨.

A big thank you to Amelie and her family for welcoming us – we wish you all the best! 💙

💙Behind each of our products are people who work every day to help make everyday life a little easier for disabled children and teens. We would like to introduce you to some of these people in our series “Three questions for …”.❔❔❔

He overseas the regions of South and Central Wales, Glocestershire, Herefordshire, Bristol, Wiltshire, Dorset, Somerset, Devon, Cornwall. Steve has been in the Mobility industry for over 8 years prior to joining Schuchmann. 🎙️"Starting off in a showroom, I quickly realised I enjoyed getting hands on with assessments and have a particular interest in specialist seating."
He lives with his Fiancée and two Maine C**n Cats, and they are currently in the process of buying their first house. Steve is a keen golfer outside of work, and recently took part in the Prostate Cancer Big Golf Race Charity day. 🏌️‍♂️

💚World Cerebral Palsy Day 2025: Unique and United💚

On October 6, 2025, communities around the globe will mark World Cerebral Palsy Day, a movement that celebrates the achievements of people with cerebral palsy (CP) and calls for a more inclusive, accessible world. The day brings together millions of individuals, families, advocates, and organisations to raise awareness, challenge barriers, and champion equal opportunities.

➡️This year’s theme—“Unique and United”—highlights two powerful truths: every person with CP has a distinct story, and we are strongest when we stand together.

On this day, our hearts are especially with children with cerebral palsy. Making life easier for them and their families is what drives us every single day in our work.

I am your mobile bathing seat.🛀

I would really love to go bathing with you. But not only that: I would also be delighted to build castles with you in the sandbox. Hair full of sand, mucky hands – we have earned ourselves a shower! My backrest can be adjusted so that you can either sit bolt upright or lean back and relax. By the way: I am so lightweight and compact in size that you just have to fold me up.
➡️That’s really practical when I accompany you on journeys or to friends’ houses.

I am your versatile bathing and shower cradle.🚿

I will adapt completely to your requirements, whether in the bathroom, in the sea or on the beach🏖️. You will always lie safely and comfortably on me! My cover is washable to 30 °C, is particularly skin-friendly and leaves no pressure marks on your body. Because you can sit very low in the bathtub with me, I can save a lot of water🛁. Aren’t I practical? What’s also practical is that my back angle can be adjusted with one hand during use – leaving the other hand free to support you!💙

In the context of the ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health) for children with disabilities, the six F-Words represent key areas of life that describe children's development and participation 💡. They were developed by Canadian researchers Dr. Peter Rosenbaum and Dr. Jan Willem Gorter to make the complex language of the ICF more child-friendly, family-oriented, and practical for everyday use.
We adopted and further developed the model. 🐘
