Our Story
accessilife was developed out of necessity. Our youngest child, Mateo, suffered a severe brain injury at birth which resulted in a long list of diagnoses, including epilepsy and spastic-dystonic quadriplegic cerebral palsy. Life was turned upside down, and we suddenly had to learn how to support and improve our son's quality of life, as well as our life together as a family.
We quickly realised that Mateo would forever depend on a wide range of accessible products and services for his daily living. We also realised there wasn’t one central resource where we could go to find these products and services, in one single place. Instead, we needed to do a variety of searches across different sources, which was incredibly frustrating, time consuming, and actually quite isolating - it made us feel like we were the only people on earth looking for these things (which was definitely not the case!).
We knew there had to be a better way. Something that could actually help families like ours and make their lives easier. That’s the reason WHY we created accessilife.
What moves us forward
Our Purpose
Accessilife’s purpose is simple – to make life easier for the millions of people living with accessibility needs, and give them greater choice and control
Our Mission
Accessilife’s mission is to shine a bright light on all accessible products and services, and give them a special and central place where they can be found
Our Vision
Accesslife’s vision is a world that is fully inclusive, accessible, and welcoming for everyone. We are continually working towards this vision
The Platform
accessilife is a single unified platform that brings together everything you need for accessible living in one place.
accessilife recognises the importance and need of all accessible products and services (regardless of size, funding or complexity) and gives them a special and central place where they can be found. It forges vital connections between buyers, sellers and the disability community at large, promoting a sense of belonging and support, and making the world of disability feel more inclusive and understood.
accessilife has been a labour of love, developed over the past few years in-between countless appointments and hospital admissions. We are proud to share it with you and truly hope it makes your life a little bit easier.
