MERU

MERU designs and makes life changing equipment for children and young people with disabilities.

If a child's disabilities are so complicated that there is no equipment available to assist them, we use our design and engineering skills to tailor-make exactly what they need to help them lead a better life.

Imagine you can't walk, talk or move, without carers operating equipment for you. MERU might design you a switch you can operate with your swallowing muscles. Operating the switch means you can use a communication device to speak, control your wheelchair to move, and use your PC - all without being dependent on carers.

MERU’s service is often a last resort for children who have highly complex disabilities. The equipment they need has such a limited market that no commercial manufacturer can justify the research and development costs. However the improvement in the quality of life and independence for the children concerned is often immense, therefore MERU relies on donations to fund the expensive process of developing this life changing equipment.
