Working in Collaboration with Ki Mobility

November 20, 2020

20 Nov 2020

Ever wanted our specialised seating to be more mobile, more flexible and more adjustable? We are proud to announce that SOS are collaborating with Ki Mobility to combine our specialised seating system with two Ki Mobility wheelchairs, the Flip and the Focus CR.

The Flip is a true 45-degree tilt in space wheelchair, with all the technology of a wheelchair but with added folding benefit of a buggy! Every element of the Flip was designed to afford parents the opportunity to gain greater independence and mobility with their child. The Focus CR is revolutionary, with a massive 55-degree tilt capacity and a rotation system that utilises 2 control paths with 2 different centers of rotation, this allows correction of any misalignment between the center of gravity and a single rotation point.

With the addition of fitting our specialist seating system, the Flip and Focus supply the child all the bespoke support that is synonymous with our specialised seating, whilst offering the added benefit of easy rotation adjustment or the ability to fold away into the smallest of cars.

More about The Flip!

The Flip is manufactured from high grade aluminum which makes the flip one of the lightest but strongest wheelchairs available in the UK. The Flip XP is also one of the most adjustable wheelchairs in its class and includes a free growth kit to ensure your child’s independence for years to come, along with our lifetime warranty on the frame for complete piece of mind!

Eliminate Bland and Illuminate Personality!

Children are small in size but their personalities can be bigger than life. Let them express themselves with over 500 color combinations. The Flip can be fully customised, from the frame and wheels to the colourful spoke guards, but adding our bespoke seating solution, with a variety of fabrics, patterns and colours, will really add vibrancy and character to their bespoke wheelchair solution!

More about The Focus!

The Focus CR has the added benefit of being a smart tilt! This means that the chair will actually tell you how much adjustment is required, so no more guessing or spending too much time altering the position. No rotation design has ever been so easy to adjust. By removing two bolts the center of gravity can be adjusted by sliding the seat forward or backwards, and in the majority of cases, with the client in situ. Made with high grade Aluminium, the Focus is one of the lightest/strongest and most maneuverable designs around.

Coronation Street’s latest Star… The P Pod!

August 26, 2020

26 Aug 2020

Earlier in the year we were contacted by the team at Coronation Street to provide a P Pod to feature in one of their upcoming storylines. As is common when working with TV production companies, the storylines, timings and release dates were shrouded in secrecy.

Last week the P Pod was featured in a storyline featuring Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) and Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) as their son Oliver is diagnosed with mitochondrial disorder, a rare incurable illness. The P Pod with its striking purple cover and wheelbase for mobility around the home was spotted in several scenes. The P Pod combines a standard or custom moulded support within a conventional bean bag base to provide a comfortable seating solution.

The SOS Commercial Director, Steve Stone, stated “we are thrilled to have our P Pod feature on such a well known and loved British soap. It is a great platform for us!”.
