Compact, Customisable, Transportable

The Skippi Paediatric Power Wheelchair is a compact, highly manoeuvrable electric wheelchair designed to offer children with mobility impairments the freedom to explore their world with greater independence. Skippi provides the versatility and support that growing children need, whether at home, school, or outdoors.

Built with functionality and adaptability, the Skippi features a fully adjustable seat system that can grow with the user. Seat depth, width, leg position and angle can all be individually tailored to ensure long-term comfort and proper posture. Children can be raised to eye level with an optional powered seat lift, helping them connect more easily with their peers and surroundings.
