“My balance changed completely. It felt like being vertical again.”

For Scott, changes to his mobility meant that activities he had always loved, from swimming to long-distance cycling, were becoming increasingly difficult. After being fitted with a SAFO, he noticed an immediate difference. For the first time in 14 years, he could heel and toe walk, and his balance was transformed. Since then, Scott has returned to long-distance cycling, completing the 900-mile Land’s End to John O’Groats route and regularly takes on rides of 50–100 miles.

“My SAFOs allow me to stay on my feet.”

For Chloe, living with drop foot meant frequent falls were affecting both her work and everyday life. Her custom SAFOs provide the support she needs to help keep her foot in a better position when walking, helping her stay on her feet and feel safer and more confident. From working as a nurse to staying active with her dog, Ocho, her SAFOs help Chloe keep doing the things that matter to her.

“If it wasn’t for the SAFO, I wouldn’t be where I am now.”

For Zoe, finding the right orthotic support has meant more than simply improving her walking. The SAFO provides the stability she needs while being comfortable and discreet enough to wear throughout the day, and, importantly, fits inside her riding boots.

Andy was back with us for another intensive rehabilitation session with his C-Brace.

After a few months away from the C-Brace while a new footplate was made, Andy is making great progress. Yesterday, he was able to continuously walk over the varied and uneven terrain around Windsor without his stick, a brilliant step towards his goal of maintaining his independence for as long as possible.

The changing terrain in Windsor was the perfect opportunity to challenge his walking, working on uneven ground, slopes, muscle balance and motor patterning 👏

Our patients recently spent the day at Scropton RDA, getting to know the horses and trying something different 🐴

They had the chance to learn how to groom the horses, find out more about how they’re cared for, help track them up, and of course get in the saddle and enjoy a ride!

As well as being a brilliant experience, horse riding can help with emotional regulation, confidence and independence, while also supporting balance, coordination and core strength 💫

Mel, who attended shared her thoughts on the day: “ [the horses] lifted my heart and made me realise I can do stuff that I’ve shield away from… I felt stronger mentally than I have for a good while.

A huge thank you to everyone for making the day so special 💙

Giving Prosthetic Legs a Second Life 🌍🦿

We’re proud to support Stand: We Walk Together and its Legs on Tour 2026 campaign, helping give unused prosthetic legs a second chance to make a difference.

Last week, we donated a collection of prosthetic legs that had already helped our patients here in the UK. Through STAND, they can now be refurbished and reused to support amputees across Africa, where access to prosthetic care can be limited.

A huge thank you to our patients who have generously donated their unused prostheses 💙

Tony’s been putting in the hard work following his osseointegration surgery, and these are just a few highlights from his first week of intensive rehabilitation.

Every exercise is focused on building the strength, balance and confidence he’ll need to get back to doing what he loves, including spending time on his boat.

This August, John Webber, a patient at our Ringwood Clinic, will set off from Plymouth on a 2,800-mile motorcycle journey across France, Spain and Portugal, riding for 28 days alongside his daughter, Zara.

For John, this journey is more than a ride. After surviving life-changing injuries in 2021, he is taking on this challenge as a powerful reminder that trauma does not get the final word. It represents resilience, recovery, and gratitude, while raising funds for the charities that supported him along the way:

The Bike Experience
National Association of Bikers with a Disability
Day One Trauma Support
