Incredibly grateful to be included as one of #SmallBiz100 and featured today in York Press and Yahoo too - how lucky we are to be alongside so many phenomenal founders ⭐️
Inspirational #SmallBiz100 Cool Crutches & Walking Sticks was created following co-founder Amelia’s quad bike accident in 2005, when she was 19 and become permanently reliant on walking aids. Due to the nature of hospital crutches, the crutches ended up putting Amelia back on bed rest with infected blisters on her hands. The reality was the one thing she’d been prescribed to give Amelia independence (crutches) was the one thing holding her back. Amelia and her mum realised there was a huge gap in the walking aid market and launched Cool Crutches & Walking Sticks in 2006, just 11 months after Amelia’s accident. Cool Crutches & Walking Sticks are transforming lives and giving people a choice.
