Recycle Mobility
Our Recycle Mobility Programme is a unique idea that focuses on promoting access to upcycled, specially adapted trikes, for children who cannot use conventional bicycles.
Not only does this initiative offer inclusion to children of all different abilities, but as the trikes are pre-loved, it is also sustainable and environmentally friendly!
iPads for Schools
Variety Ireland is passionate about helping children who require additional supports with learning. We recognise the essential duties that every Special Needs Assistant carries out on a daily basis, in helping children with learning difficulties.
By providing an iPad to every National School, we hope that we can help in some small way to make learning more accessible to some.
Sustainable Programmes
As a “charity with a conscience”, we have adopted a progressive sustainability policy in our efforts to better service the needs of children with mobility and educational needs in Ireland.
We actively source upcycled equipment when available and try to ensure it is then further upcycled. This way we are not only helping even more chidren, but also saving carbon!
Impact Report on our Recycle Mobility Programme
Since launching our Recycle Mobility Programme in 2021, we have supplied over 40 specialised trikes to children all across Ireland.
In a report carried out by Dr Jolanta Burke of The RCSI, the impact of these trikes on both physical and mental well-being of children and their families was measured.
