Building on the very best of the MyWay walker, we are excited to introduce MyWay+, reimagined with a wide range of new features and accessories to suit every need. By allowing the MyWay+ to be tailored to each child’s individual needs, we have opened up even more possibilities for children to play, have fun and explore without limitations. Early intervention is key to optimising a child’s potential, and therefore we have resized our size 1 frame to better accommodate younger children’s body proportions and really give them the best opportunity to develop their physical, cognitive, emotional and social skills.

The Leckey MyWay Pedal attachment is also available on the MyWay+ script. This device enables children to pedal in an upright position, working lower limb muscles in the range of movement the child would use during stepping and other functional activities.Â
Many children experience difficulties maintaining good trunk alignment when in an upright position but the MyWay+ harness offers something different. The revolutionary MyWay+ harness has been designed to give 360° wraparound support to promote optimal stepping pattern. Its hug-like effect increases sensory feedback, dampens involuntary movement and provides core stability with comfort, support and reassurance. It provides added core stability, which in turn can improve lower limb movements and head control.
The MyWay+ harness is hoistable, encouraging easier transitions in and out of the MyWay+ frame, using the optional hoisting straps accessory.Â
There is no need to use a different hoisting sling to do this, saving time and supporting the child in getting maximum use and enjoyment out of their MyWay+!
Children with additional needs often have weaker muscles, especially around their hips, which can impact on their gait, function and hip joint development. The new side step function of the MyWay+ locks the wheels of the frame in a sideways position, providing opportunity to target and strengthen hip abductor muscles whilst fully supported in the frame.
The optional ankle guides are designed to help separate the child's legs to control scissoring gait. The MyWay+ ankle guide rails are flexible, which gives children more flexibility during use and in set-up. The guides can be used at the ankle or adjusted slightly higher up the calf, depending on individual needs.
The new easy-adjust adult handles are height adjustable for a range of carer heights. They enable a carer to guide the child around small spaces, and encourage first steps or first pedals to become meaningful movements.
MyWay+'s newly developed indoor/outdoor castors enable children to be active in lots of different environments.
These castors are multifunctional and offer brake, direction lock, anti-roll back and resistance, which assists steering, prevents backwards movement, limits speed as required etc, and means MyWay+ can be tailored to the individual child’s needs, helping maximise their opportunity for use and further promoting function.
