At REMAP, we’re all about making things possible.
Every year we help thousands of disabled people achieve their goals and attain a better quality of life, through custom-made equipment.
The equipment and adaptations our volunteers make aim to support you with could include:
- Mobility and access issues
- Independent living, for example eating and drinking
- Managing personal care
- Sports, hobbies & social activities

When we are unable to help:
We do not provide anything that is commercially available to buy.
We also do not carry out repairs on items.
Our service is for when there is nothing commercially available to suit your needs. If we cannot help we will try to signpost you to any useful resources.
How to get our help
It’s important that we first take a few details about what you need, in order to assess whether we can help you. So firstly, we will need you to make a referral. We will manage the personal details you give, sensitively and safely using this secure form.
If the equipment that would help you already exists, we will encourage you to buy that. Our help is for situations where there is nothing commercially available that is suitable for you.
If we think we can help, a volunteer from your nearest REMAP branch will contact you to discuss your situation and understand what you need. Most branches will have a volunteer health professional such as an Occupational Therapist, to observe and provide expert advice.
Following that, we will design and make a piece of equipment specifically for you, in a way that meets your needs. Sometimes we will adapt existing equipment to make it more suitable for you.
