We welcomed a healthy number of visitors to its exhibition stand at Kidz-to-Adultz South
Debuting at Farnborough International Exhibition & Conference Centre, Kidz South provided the opportunity for young people with disabilities, families and healthcare professionals to see the latest in assistive products and services.
New location
This modern and accessible venue delivered a fresh experience and attracted new visitors who had not previously attended a Kidz event.
Product demonstrations
The Trusted Assessors from Theraposture were able to demonstrate their quality adjustable bed and care cot range to a new audience who were seeking proven and safe sleeping solutions. The Mascot Mk2 with its truly future-proofed design proved to be very popular as it provides a cot that can change as user needs change.
Mascot cot and improved safety
For example, it is the only flexible cot design that is changed from 4-door (1 side opening) to 8-door opening (both sides) – hence care and safety can be maintained with one purchase, irrespective of changing needs. This is why the Mascot MK2 is the considered choice as it represents outstanding value for money.
Theraposture were supported once more on their stand by a representative from their partnering charity – Newlife, The Charity for Disabled Children.
Theraposture work very closely with the charity to provide Newlife’s Emergency Equipment Loans service – helping children at risk of serious injury and those in urgent need due to life-threatening/limiting conditions. Theraposture supplies, delivers, installs, maintains and collects its assistive products on behalf of Newlife. This service is FREE and often results in a solution being in place within 72 hours.
Theraposture will be exhibiting next at:
Kidz-to-Adultz Wales and West, 5th July 2018, Thornbury Leisure Centre, Bristol. BS35 3JB. Stand A20.

Part of Theraposture’s extensive product range, the Mascot Cot Bed System is a popular choice with parents and professionals and Charities, as its adaptable design can change as needs change.
Trusted Assessors with a range of educational literature including cot funding guides.
A modular cot for changing needs
Through a completely modular construction, the design, height and number of doors and configuration (with rails or Perspex) can all be adapted so children with changing needs remain safe, comfortable and assured. It also ensures those caring for disabled children can do so safely and effectively.
Flexible and fun!
The Mascot is the only adjustable cot that has the flexibility to be changed from 4 doors (1 side opening) to 8 door (both sides), so care and safety can be maintained irrespective of varying challenges.
- Unrestricted two-way access.
- Height adjustment.
- Optional mattress profiling.
- Carers and parents can attend to children at safe working heights.
The risk of excessive bending, stretching or lifting is eliminated so back and muscle injury can be avoided as the Mascot meets the safe working height requirement of BSEN 60601-2-52. Greater engagement is also possible with children so comfort and reassurance is maximised – enhanced by precision-fitting padding printed with fun designs.
Guaranteed handcrafted quality
As with all Theraposture equipment, the Mascot is handcrafted with quality materials that offer utmost safety and durability and the warranty is fully inclusive for 3 years. This combines with competitive pricing and a future-proofed design to offer the leading solution for long-term value.
We are here to help
Trusted Assessors from Theraposture will be available throughout Kidz South to explain why the Mascot is clearly the considered choice for both parents and professionals.
They will be able to explain how their experience and knowledge is leveraged by OTs so the most appropriate solution is provided for all end users. A range of free educational literature including engaging case studies and cot funding guides will also be available.

Theraposture, the trusted specialist in adjustable beds and care cots for disabled children, will be offering vital guidance regarding funding and demonstrations of its latest Mascot cot at Kidz-to-Adultz-South.
Thursday 8th June 2017, 9.30am – 4.30pm, Rivermead Leisure Complex, Richfield Avenue, Reading, RG1 8EQ. Stand 313.
Organised by Disabled Living, Kidz-to-Adultz-South provides a free and friendly opportunity for parents, therapists and carers to test and compare the latest products and services for disabled children and young adults.
As one of the most popular exhibitors at Kidz, Theraposture will be demonstrating examples from its quality range including a Theracare adjustable bed and the latest version of its future-proof Mascot care cot. The new Mascot with 120cm high-sided doors will be launched at the show as it provides the ideal solution to keep older children and young adults safe and reassured. It is handcrafted with a range of door inserts such as safe soft Perspex and colourful rails that provide a welcoming space that is not visually enclosed – ensuring clear engagement with carers and parents. As with all Mascots, this latest version negates the need to purchase a new cot in the future – it can be adapted to meet changing needs and hence provides the most cost effective solution available.
Alongside product demonstrations by friendly Trusted Assessors, Theraposture will be offering guidance documents about ‘funding routes and your rights to the correct solution for your child’. Supported by their partner charity, Newlife, this information explains possible funding options through statutory services, charities and private purchases. It also highlights the equipment loan scheme from Newlife and key features of the Care Act that stipulate the rights of every child in terms of assessment and equipment provision.
Liam Braddell, Theraposture Sales Director comments:
“As a caring specialist bed and cot manufacturer we believe that supporting disabled children, families and therapists through useful and accurate information is crucial. With the right facts, families and professionals can be empowered to make informed decisions regarding the most appropriate equipment. They also have greater knowledge to assist with grant applications so disabled children can own the right adjustable bed or cot for their needs. We continue to work closely with OTs and parents so positive outcomes are achieved for everyone.”
