From time to time, we get asked if we will take donations of used equipment. As Astris PME receives no NDIS or government funding for our demo fleet, we often do gratefully accept donations of used equipment.

If you have equipment that is in good working order, reasonably clean, preferably less than 3 years old, please send details to: donations@astris-pme.com.au

Include the following (if possible):

  • Photos (3-6 photos)
  • Copy of proof of ownership (invoice or delivery docket, or declaration of same)
  • Contact details (name, email, phone)
  • Street address (where the equipment is stored)
  • Reason for disposal

We will reply to you within 7 days as to whether we are able to accept your donation.

Your donation will be used to assist others who would like to trial equipment before deciding what is right for their needs.

Astris PME has offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, ACT and regional areas. Click HERE for contact details.

    Adaptive Cycling – Let’s get riding!

    In the wake of updated World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines emphasizing the importance of physical activity for individuals with chronic conditions or disabilities, adaptive cycling emerges as an exciting avenue to promote both physical and mental well-being. The WHO recommends 60 minutes a day of moderate-to-vigorous intensity, mostly aerobic, physical activity, across the week and that sedentary time should be limited. Cycling embodies all of this.  Let's explore how trikes, particularly the Rifton Adaptive Tricycle and Schuchmann Momo Trike, play a crucial role in making cycling a reality for children facing unique challenges.

    Life from a Different Perspective: Why do we stand?

From the initial stages of development, the progression is directed towards achieving an upright stance—beginning with the ability to roll over in the first few months, followed by crawling at approximately 9 months, and culminating in the act of pulling oneself to stand at around 10 months. This developmental trajectory is driven by the overarching aim of attaining the distinct perspective and autonomy afforded by independent standing and mobility.
