Moti Me

Katie Michaels is the founder of Moti Me. Her impact-driven business tackles how a lack of access to physiotherapy and physical activity sessions guided by healthcare professionals can be detrimental for children with disabilities in achieving their developmental milestones and how parents often struggle to continue exercise at home.

Katie Michaels, a Loughborough University alumni, won the Health Champion award for Moti Me, which aims to help children with disabilities. Katie has identified that a lack of access to physiotherapy and physical activity sessions guided by healthcare professionals can be detrimental for children with disabilities in achieving their developmental milestones and how parents often struggle to continue the exercises at home. Moti Me includes a handheld device, mat and guidance app to support parents or caregivers and their child with special needs to practice physio and carry out developmental exercises in the home environment.

"Winning Health Champion is amazing. It's going to help us get the prototype to that next stage. The funding will be used to develop the electronics, the mechanics and development of the app, which will be completely game changing."
