On December 3 this year, during the annual celebration of people with disabilities, the 2021 theme is “Fighting for rights in the post-COVID era.”
Since March 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic has affected everyone’s lives, particularly those with disabilities who are experiencing reduced access to routine health care and rehabilitation including the increased risk of poor outcomes from the disease itself.
Our mission
At Seating Matters we are celebrating this special day as our mission is to improve millions of lives a year and one of our crucial roles involves supporting those with disabilities.
Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, our Seating Matters team continued to provide support both in person and virtually to those in need through Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Face Time etc. for seating assessments, online demos and chair reviews.
Additionally, our Seating Matter chairs are now being used in Covid Rehabilitation Centres all over the world.
