Developing a toddler carrier for a wheelchair

Bath Institute of Medical Engineering have been looking at options for carrying toddlers on a wheelchair. The idea is to fix on a tricycle like seat to the front of the wheelchair to enable toddlers to ride for short distances. They are interested in hearing from anyone who might be interested in working with them as volunteers on further developing this concept. Ideally, you would be living in the Bath / Bristol area or south west.
