Tandem Buggy
We designed the tandem buggy to enable families who have a disabled child and another
younger child to enjoy the freedom they deserve. The system is not designed for two children
who both have special needs as we are not able to provide postural support in the second seat.
In order to create a buggy that can take two children, and can still be pushed easily and navigate
around shops and other urban terrain, there had to be a element of compromise. One of these
is balance. It is important that the front seat is always occupied when using the rear seat.
RULE NO.1 – Do not put a child in the rear seat if the
front seat is not occupied
RULE NO.2 – Do not take the child out of the front
seat if the rear seat is still occupied
This is a very important thing to explain to other users and carers, and will ensure
that both occupants remain safe.
Care should also be taken when adjusting the positions of either seat to ensure that
the other seat still has enough space. They should be positioned as close to each
other as possible to keep the weight over the wheelbase as much as possible.
