The R82 Heron Foot Supports are a pair of footplates that mount to the R82 Heron toilet and shower chair to position the child’s legs and feet. Three versions cover different leg lengths and knee positions: Right Angled Knee adjusts from 390 to 550 mm, the Short Edition covers 305 to 380 mm for smaller children, and the Open Knee Angle version covers 355 to 535 mm with the footplate set forward for a knee that sits at more than 90 degrees.
The supports are sold as a set of two and fit the Heron base and power frames. Height is adjustable within each range to suit growth.

Who it suits
Any child on a Heron who needs the feet supported for stability during toileting or showering. Choose the right-angled versions for a child who can sit with the knee at 90 degrees; choose the Open Knee Angle version for a child with hamstring tightness or a fixed extension who needs the feet set forward. If the child already has secure foot contact with the floor on the lowest seat setting, a footplate may not be needed.
