When Hannah started planning her family’s first holiday since Frankie outgrew his beloved Go2 seat, she hit a wall. That seat had made traveling possible, but now it no longer fit, and there wasn’t a bigger size available. With Frankie using a wheelchair and needing postural support due to low muscle tone, Hannah knew finding the right solution was key to making their trip work.
Then she came across the Special Tomato Out & About Seat and something about it felt right.
The Special Tomato Out & About Seat is a portable, supportive seating solution designed to help children with mild to moderate postural needs join in everyday activities – whether at home, at a restaurant, or out on holiday.
Hannah mentioned it to Leila, our Lending Library expert, who immediately saw its potential. Leila dug deeper, researched the seat, and realised it could be a real game-changer not just for Frankie, but for many other families facing similar challenges.
That one conversation made all the difference. With the new seat in place, Hannah and her family were able to enjoy their holiday with ease, freedom, and far fewer worries.
And now? That same Special Tomato Out & About Seat is proudly part of the Lending Library, ready to support more families on their adventures.
