MERU, The Medical Engineering Resource Unit: imagineering a better life for children and young people with disabilities.

Our vision is to see children and young people with disabilities and their families living life to their full potential.

MERU strives for this by designing and manufacturing bespoke equipment to overcome disabilities and barriers to speech, movement, personal dignity and safety.

We aim to offer children and teenagers choice, control, independence, access to learning and play and social inclusion. Bugzi is a particularly special project for MERU because it does all these things at once for pre-school children. It is a departure for MERU into serial production - most of our products are tailor-made for individual children and young people. Bugzi has such a profound impact on the lives of young children with disabilities that we felt compelled to make it as widely available as possible.
