DO IT YOURSELF ENTRY --- PURPOSE: To adapt a standard jogging stroller to accommodate a growing child with cerebral palsy. An existing stroller was modified by installing a new higher seat cushion higher in the existing fabric seat. The cushion was fabricated, taped, and sewn using a piece of nylon plate for rigidity on the bottom with foam and canvas to cover. This seat assembly was supported by canvas Velcroed to the sides of the existing seat. This allows the seat to be adjusted. A brick counterweight was taped to the existing footpads to balance the higher centre of gravity. The existing rain canopy was too low for the child in her new position, so a new frame was made for the rain canopy. The new frame was bent out of steel wire (from an election campaign poster that sticks in the ground with printed plastic covering it. TITLE: Modified Jogging Stroller.
