Sustaining a paralyzing injury doesn't have to mean an end to your active, outdoor lifestyle. There are many mobility assisting devices available to help independent individuals living with a new (or lifelong) paralysis.
The problem is that these devices are disgustingly expensive --seriously, these things make ski-racing look cheap! - which is where we come in:
The RAD Recreation Adaptive Society gives individuals with short-term and permanent mobility issues who live in or are visiting BC the ability to rent adaptive equipment so that you can ski, snowboard, paddle-board, bike, wake-surf, and hike without having to re-mortgage your home, your mom's home, and work 10 extra jobs.
We weren't kidding. This stuff's expensive. You might have to re-mortgage grandpa's house too, and switch your dog back to a gluten-based diet.
But, thanks to the generous donations of our communities, you don't have to spend tens of thousands of dollars on multiple pieces of equipment, instead, you can rent what you need, when you need. For example, try out the free-wheel attachment or the Mountain Trike shown below (quad controls COMING SOON).
THE MOUNTAIN TRIKE!
This piece of adaptive equipment will get you out into nature - extreme or not!
ATTEND AN EVENT
We are able to provide adaptive recreation equipment because of the generous participation and support of our communities. In addition to private and corporate donations, you and your community can help us achieve our vision by attending our hosting one of our many fundraising events.
