For families of disabled children, finding the right car seat is about more than just transport—it's about safety, dignity, comfort, and quality of life. At In Car Safety Centre, we understand the daily challenges that parents and carers face when it comes to mobility and access. That’s why, for over 30 years, we’ve been dedicated to providing expert guidance and professional assessments to help families find the best car seat solution for their child’s individual needs.
Why Specialist Car Seats Matter
Children with physical or neurological disabilities often require more than a standard car seat. From postural support to additional harnessing, and from reclining positions to side-impact protection, every detail matters. A properly selected and professionally fitted car seat can:
-
Improve comfort on short and long journeys
-
Reduce the risk of injury in a crash
-
Support safe, inclusive everyday routines
-
Ease stress for parents and carers
We offer a wide range of disability car seats for children, suitable from infancy through to 36 kg (approximately 11–12 years), with customisable features to meet each child’s unique requirements.
Expert Assessment and Advice—Backed by Experience
What sets In Car Safety Centre apart is our trusted track record of over 30 years. Our trained team provides in-person assessments in our centres in Belfast, Towcester, and Essex. We work closely with families, occupational therapists, and health professionals to ensure the child’s medical and physical needs are fully understood.
Our consultants take the time to:
-
Understand your child’s diagnosis and mobility needs
-
Evaluate the child’s current seating arrangements and transport methods
-
Recommend the most appropriate car seat, with hands-on demonstrations
-
Support with installation and ongoing fitting advice
Every child is different—our job is to listen, adapt, and help find a solution that works.
Working Together to Make Car Seats Accessible
We know that specialist car seats can come with a high price tag. To ensure every family has the support they need, we proudly work in partnership with a number of UK charities and grant-making organisations. Our Charity Funding Directory is a one-stop resource to help families seek funding and get in touch with trusted support organisations.
We collaborate with:
-

-
Children Today – supporting families of children with life-limiting conditions
-
Cash for Kids and Fledglings CIC – offering regional and tailored help
Our team can also guide you through the application process and provide supporting documentation to help your funding case.
Making Everyday Life Easier
We believe that every family should be able to go about their daily routines—whether that’s a school run, hospital appointment, or a day out—with the confidence that their child is safe, secure, and comfortable. That’s what motivates our work at In Car Safety Centre.
From assessment to funding support, we’re here to help you navigate this journey.
