Every day, the Cumbria Mobility team gets to help people with mobility issues and disabilities living in Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire to lead more independent lives. While the majority of our customers are adults and teenagers, every now and then, we get the pleasure of serving younger clients and their families. However, it's not very often that you meet a youngster like Noah Wall, who's a very special little boy from Abbeytown in Cumbria.

Four-year-old Noah was born with Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus, as well as a back quarter of his brain missing, and he's been through multiple operations since he was just a few days old. His movement is severely restricted, and his mum has to turn him over during the night as he's unable to do it himself.

Hugs for Noah

This little boy's sad yet inspirational story spread quickly throughout the North-West of England, aided by the website his family set up:

• www.hugsfornoah.co.uk

Hugs for Noah aims to raise awareness of Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus and now millions of people across the UK are familiar with Noah's story after he appeared on a Channel 5 television programme called "The Boy with No Brain".

Zippie Voyage Early Intervention Stroller

As one of our showrooms was located in Noah's local area, the Cumbria Mobility team decided that we wanted to do something special for him. By working together with one of our key mobility products' manufacturers, Sunrise Medical, we were able to identify a children's buggy which could really help make day-to-day living for both Noah and his family that bit easier.

The Zippie Voyage Early Intervention Stroller might look like any other buggy, but it's actually so much more. It incorporates the Zippie Voyage seat system, which allows you to recline and tilt the stroller as required using an easy-to-access trigger handle to enable improved feeding, digestion, visual orientation, and respiratory function. Its quick-fold design makes it lightweight and compact to transport. Plus, you can position the seat to face forwards or backwards in one easy step thanks to the Slide-N-Lock seat adapter that comes as standard.

Presentation

We were lucky enough to present Noah with his Zippie Voyage Early Intervention Stroller at an event organised by Age UK West Cumbria in Workington.

We captured some great photos of Noah and the other goings on, along with staff from Cumbria Mobility, Sunrise Medical and Quantum Rehab.

As you can see, Noah was smitten with the new addition to his family.

We hope you enjoy reading all about Noah and getting to know him and his family as much as we have. It really is an amazing story about an amazing little boy.
