Frequently Bought Together

Remove the physical barriers to community events and manage postural fatigue with the Portable Padded Support Seat. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this ultra-lightweight seat is designed to support NDIS participants with low muscle tone, chronic back pain, or sensory processing differences who find sitting on hard, unsupported surfaces challenging.

Standard stadium seating or sitting on the ground can lead to rapid physical exhaustion and pain for many participants, often resulting in withdrawal from social activities. This device solves that challenge by providing an instant, stable backrest and a clean, cushioned surface anywhere. Whether at a sports carnival, a park picnic, or a therapy group, this seat allows the user to maintain an upright posture with less muscular effort. The durable, stain-resistant fabric ensures it can be used on grass or damp benches, making it a vital tool for enabling consistent community participation.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

  • Postural Stability: The firm backrest supports the lumbar and thoracic spine, reducing the core strength required to sit upright and preventing the "slumping" associated with low muscle tone.

  • Fatigue Management: By providing external support, the seat conserves the participant's energy levels, allowing them to engage in social interaction for longer periods without physical exhaustion.

  • Sensory Regulation: Creates a defined physical boundary and personal space on crowded bleachers, offering proprioceptive support that can help reduce anxiety for neurodivergent users.

  • Pain Reduction: The pearl cotton padding acts as a buffer against hard surfaces (concrete, wood, metal), protecting skin integrity and reducing discomfort for those with chronic pain conditions.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Adjustable Angle Support: Features side buckle straps that allow the user to adjust the recline angle, creating a custom fit that creates a stable triangular support structure.

  • Integrated Storage: Includes a back pocket for keeping essential items (phone, fidget tools, communication cards) organized and off the ground.

  • Hygienic Barrier: Made from durable Oxford cloth that is water-resistant and easy to wipe clean, protecting the user's clothing from wet grass or dirty stadium seats.

  • Ultra-Lightweight Design: Weighing approximately 100g, this is one of the lightest support seats available, allowing participants with limited upper limb strength to carry it independently.

  • Compact Folding: Folds down flat for easy storage in a backpack or car boot, ensuring support is always available when leaving the house.

Package Includes

  • 1 x Portable Seat with Back Support (Blue)
