Newlife

Newlife is on a mission to empower all children with disabilities to experience the joy of childhood. Together, we can help every child with a disability get the support, equipment and encouragement they need to live, grow and flourish.

Meet Bobby

Meet Bobby
When eight-year-old Bobby’s old wheelchair became too small and started to fall apart, it meant he couldn’t take part in the activities he loves, and his independence started slipping away. Until Newlife helped change that.

A brighter future

A brighter future
Bobby’s new specialist wheelchair, funded by Newlife, enables him to keep up with his friends and join in with his favourite sports, like wheelchair racing, basketball and archery. “It helps me play and be included,” Bobby says.

Supporting children to thrive
