Description
The Special Tomato Jogger offers an ideal all-terrain special needs buggy for the family who like to be out and about. The stylish jogger provides the comfort and positioning needed for you and your child to enjoy the outdoors. It’s a lightweight, all terrain pushchair designed for disabled children requiring minimal to moderate positioning, suitable from early years to the older child up to approximately age 6-7 years old.
The pushchair has a lightweight aluminium frame and functional rear suspension, ensuring a smooth ride over most surfaces. With a swivel front wheel for easy turning both indoors and around town, which can also be locked in place for added stability over rougher terrain. The comfortable padded seat reclines and the canopy has a window so your child is visible at all times. Suitable for all-terrains and everyday use, whether your indoors, around town, on long walks in the city or country, or even if you feel like jogging!
The Special Tomato Jogger was specifically designed to meet the comfort and support needs of each child in a convenient, easy-to-use, compact folding system for parents and caregivers. With its folding frame and quick release pneumatic tyres, the pushchair fits easily into the boot of most cars with minimal effort.
It has a short canopy which offers some protection from sun or rain, although a separate raincover is available as an optional extra. The upholstery is surface washable and the detachable liner is reversible, so that the canvas side can be used in the summer and the fleece side in the winter. It combines all the features you would expect for an older, disabled child with mild to moderate needs. There’s a safety harness that combines an upper chest harness with a separate pelvic harness. An optional Medical Necessities Bag (underseat basket) can be used to carry medications or other items you may need.

And for kids who need a little more positioning, the Size 1 and 2 Soft-Touch Liners and Soft-Touch Sitters can be inserted into the Special Tomato Jogger and an optional Head Support attached. The Soft-Touch Liner easily attaches to offer contoured body support for additional positioning and the pushchair still folds with it in place. Adding Soft-Touch Sitters will provide more trunk support for your child. Both sold separately.

Dear Delyth
My goodness what a welcome shock surprise I had this morning!!!
I didnt expect it to arrive until well after I had got the supporting letter to you..
Which is taking a while, our senco hasnt replied yet but I’m sure she will.
It is incredible!! I am blown away and was in tears because of the difference this will make to her life! She can see so much more of the world now.
I cant honestly tell you how unbelievably grateful I am for all you have done.
I couldnt call as I would just boo down the phone at you.
I will chase up her senco today.
This is incredible and I really cannot thank you and the charity involved enough!
Can I send you and the charity a card?
I do hope you and yours are keeping well 🥰
Love

The most comfortable Thomas has been in months while out and about, he kept his straps on once adjusted to correct sizes, kept his Top on even and just enjoyed the ride…an amazing difference…. can’t thank you guys enough!! Highly recommend the Special Tomato jogger and Freedom for kids…. awesome, thank you!!

Hi Delyth,
Well the new buggy arrived Friday and we were out within the hour!!!
He loves it. It’s so much easier to manoeuvre around. His legs seem a tad long for it but he’s not complaining :).
I’ve attached a photo for you to show just how much happiness you’ve brought to this little man.
Thanks again for all your help.
