I have an E3 and that'll be for DD2 (20 months) and DC3 (due in 4 weeks or so).

I'm looking for a very simple, lightweight stroller buggy for my 5 yr old who although can walk has Down's syndrome and only started walking in teh new year and can't walk far or that well.

I would say one of the maclarens would be your best bet. They last so well as well. We have bought cheaper ones in the past and they have been rubbish.

can you get a maclaren major?

A maclaren mahor - is that a specail SN's buggy? Whaere do you get them from, the way you say that sounds like it's an entitlement thing?

I tried at my local NHS hospital and got a shitty wheelchair thing that I give the school to keep and use there on trips to mass and days out.

Thank you. Wheelchair clinic didn't help last time tbh but I could try again.

Will also check ebay.
