Hunter is loving his Gobabygo car. When he is in it he is all smiles. He is still learning to control it while paying attention to where he is going, but as it is still so new we know this will come. He is already getting more control day by day and is always so excited to get in it and go. We are looking forward to using it lots in the coming months as we are out and about with friends, so he can join in and play with the other children. Thank you so much Gobabygo for an amazing car that is improving Hunter’s physical and social skills in such a fun way!

Having been involved with other charities that support disadvantaged kids, we could immediately see the benefits of Gobabygo for children and their families. The smiles we see on the faces of the recipients are PRICELESS. We know that this will benefit the child as modifications to the cars ensure the child must use them in a way that will strengthen or improve their physical wellbeing, and hey, if they have masses of fun too, that’s AWESOME.

A wonderful and exciting way to build therapy objectives into play. We would all love to drive a BMW.

Once you realise the opportunities and the difference these cars can make to the lives of these little people and their parents, or get the opportunity to see a child's smile when they get in one and off they go for the first time, it’s easy to make the decision to support this wonderful charity.

Jiselle absolutely loves her Beamer! We reside not far from the local school and there is a sheltered path on which Jiselle rides it every day to school and arrives in great style. Jiselle has never been this happy and loves it that for the first time she is able to ride on her own. We are truly grateful to the go Baby Go project!

"Watching Tama in his little car has been such a blessing he absolutely loves it! Getting him out is the hard part, but the independence it has given him to get around the house is priceless! Thank you so so much."

"It took three years but our little girl has finally got past her fear of moving. Thank you so much, this is a huge milestone for Mila"

"Matteo and his siblings have loved his little car. It started with Matteo passively sitting in the car (but loving it) while his siblings controlled the remote – but now he has learned to push the red button to make the car move! When we take it out in public – particularly to school playgrounds – he is the centre of attention. He particularly loves being able to ‘catch up’ to his older siblings when they are on their bikes or scooters. Usually, as a parent, I am used to the feeling of jumping through so many hoops – and there always being a cost – when applying for things for Matteo, but the experience with Go Baby Go was the opposite. There was no catch. It was such an easy process and the help and support was fantastic – what wonderful people!
