From Our Partners:

We decided to get involved in the conference itself because of its value in extending the awareness and advocacy of the amputation. The sharing of knowledge is the one thing that breaks the barriers down that creates solutions to problems and lifts the whole community. And this conference just presents an opportunity to see that continually grow in effect, including affecting change within policy and government

We work quite closely with mobility engineering outside of these events just as another industry provider. I think it just works very well and compliments what we offer with our equipment into the community and a lot of the wheelchairs that we provide are often used by our clients in modified vehicles

Mobility Engineering is our exclusive dealer for Australia and I trust them and I believe in them in what they do

Coming to this conference, I think gives someone whether they're a natural end user or amputee or even someone that has an interest in these. It gives you an opportunity to really see the big players out there. The ones that are actually driving the difference in the industry like Bruno, Autoadapt, Kivi. Those are the types of companies that are driving these industries and really the education it behind because most people don't know where they can find a solution for this problem or for their disabilities. So, really for all of us to come together in this sort of event is really a great opportunity for end users, OTs, anybody that has any interest in this come out, get some questions answered, get some education behind it and then have a touch and play and feel with product.

In this particular conference, I’m looking to provide a mechanism of awareness. But also, grow the experience for those attending participants.

Darrel Sparke, Amputees NSW

 

I think their conference has been really good to I guess feed an appetite within the disability space that the new funding climate that were in a lot of people I think here are learning about a new way to access products on behalf of their clients and understand how the funding bodies interact with the suppliers and to make sure that we're providing the clinical response to I guess to compliment the equipment as well.

Dana Sartori, Independent Living Specialists (ILS)

 

Of course, it’s such a wide range of what mobility offer. It gives the client more choice. 

Jacqui Brearley, TJM Orange

 

We've had a great relationship with mobility engineering and so far it's been a great success coming to this conferences and really sharing knowledge and educating the industry as to what's available to them.

Jacqui Brearley, TJM Orange

 

It's great to see the growth from single day to 2 days. I guess it creates opportunity to share that message and to interact to have target answer to questions and for me I knew it.

Darrel Sparke, Amputees NSW

 

I'm a big believer that you don't just do one thing and in 12 months that have to do nothing. I look at what's gonna be a longer term result. And everything here gives the client a long term result.

Jacqui Brearley, TJM Orange

 

For next year, I hope that I will see more people driving.  And I hope that people will know about being able to drive and believing in themselves
