WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
Anthony Frisina
"The wheelchair-accessible swing at Gage Park has been a game-changer. It sets the precedence for the future of greater access to play for persons who use wheelchairs in the City of Hamilton. I am grateful for this initiative and a future of active and inclusive play for everyone."
Springdale Public Schools, Springdale Arkansas Teacher
"When a student in a wheelchair is upset, it is difficult to rock them or sooth them. Having access to the Freedom Glider has enabled the school staff to comfort students who are in a wheelchair and not able to easily be lifted out of the wheelchair. We have seen students go from crying and upset with increased tone to calm, smiling and relaxed."
Springdale Public Schools, Springdale Arkansas Teacher
"When recess is mentioned, my student immediately starts to propel herself toward the playground and "her" swing. She is motivated to get to the playground so she can swing as long as possible. Having the Freedom Glider has not only given her something to do at recess that all of the other students enjoy, it has motivated her to become more proficient in independent wheelchair propulsion!"
Springdale Public Schools, Springdale Arkansas Teacher
"The Freedom Gliders have enabled all of our students to fully participate in recess! A game changer for our students who use a wheelchair for their mobility!"
Dan Maggiacomo

The students with mobility-challenges love it, the staff are always getting students on the swing. It’s so easy to access that it encourages constant use, ALL of our students now benefit from our playground!"
