Sometimes one right thing — a wheelchair, walker, or a picture card — can change a child’s whole world.
At the Centre for Assistive Technologies, we help children with disabilities become more independent, discover new ways to communicate, move, and interact.
We don’t just select devices — we look for solutions that improve the quality of life for the child and their family.
Who do we support?
Families raising children with disabilities under 18 years old can reach out to the Centre.
The service is available regardless of your place of residence, and no documents are required to receive it.
How do we help?
Our specialists:
- assess the child’s functional abilities;
- identify the need for assistive devices and select the optimal tools;
- teach the child and parents how to use the equipment;
- help create a comfortable environment at home, school, or kindergarten;
- support the use of assistive devices and, if necessary, provide maintenance and repair.

1. Mobility aids: wheelchairs, outdoor strollers, walkers, crutches, canes
2. Positioning aids: standing frames, special chairs, body support cushions
3. Communication aids: cards, communication books, eye trackers, computer programs
