Thank you for sharing this video! Great idea! When you say "we" run under our own insurance, who is "we"? We have the equipment it is just finding volunteers and information to ease the fear of liability!

It's a program we run under our own insurance. Liability is actually pretty limited, given the nature of the program.

We have a variety of adaptive equipment that was donated/given to our local community, it is being stored in a local storage building for free, along our rail trail. In order for it to be used a licensed Physical Therapist has to fit someone to the equipment. It is challenging finding someone to do this as they do not want to be liable.

Does anyone have experience in renting out adaptive equipment and are there other avenues to go with so the brand new equipment does not just sit, like it already has been doing for one year?

Thank you for your help!!!
