Northern Counties School is now the only school in the North of England to offer this amazing new piece of equipment.

The Innowalk, by Made for Movement, is a powerful 3-in-1 device for sitting, standing and moving. It allows safe and comfortable movement for the user. Assisted, guided and repetitive movements in an upright, weight-bearing position stimulate gross-motor function and reduce the risk of negative health outcomes.

How Does the Innowalk work?

People with moderate to severe motor impairment suffer typically from neurological and neuro-muscular disease. They have limited ability for independent movement and are less physically active compared to able-bodied. They spend most of their waking hours being sedentary. It works by supporting the user in an upright standing position, to allow assisted, guided and repetitive movements in a safe, comfortable way.

The Innowalk dynamic stander offers:

  • Motorised movement – Motor-assisted and repetitive movement of the whole body in an upright weight bearing position.
  • Support system – Adaptable support system enabling appropriate positioning and exceptional comfort.
  • Safe use – Safe usage with adaptable motor force where the assistive movement can be interrupted if muscles go into spasms.

Who is it for?

The Innowalk is suitable for people with moderate to severe disabilities such as: 

  • Cerebral palsy 
  • Syndromes such as Rett and Trisomie 21 
  • Spinal cord injury
  • Spina bifida 
  • Brain injury
