Welcome! It’s so great to meet you. We are the Freedom-ites and this is the first post of our brand new blog. We are so glad you dropped by. You might be wondering a couple of things:
- Who are these Freedom-ites?
- What’s in it for me? (free and engaging content, we promise)
- What can I expect from the Freedom blog?
- How can I engage with these Freedom-ites?
It’s good to ask questions, and though we might be strangers now, we hope to be friends soon! So please stick around and let us introduce ourselves. Find out what we can do for YOU!
Our mission is simple: to enhance the lives of our readers and clients.
Our content is made for people of all abilities, but if you are a senior, live with a mobility disability, or a loved one of yours falls in one of those categories (so everyone!), you will find the Freedom Blog particularly helpful.
Who Are We?
See that photo up at the top? The one with 10 smiles wearing their Freedom gear? That’s us! It’s not me (I took the picture). My name is Ryan. Hayley (the Freedom-ite on the top right) and I are your Freedom Blog guides. We create the content and also find experts in the accessible and senior lifestyle universe to create original content to share with you on the Freedom Blog.
Since 2006, we’ve helped thousands of clients create safe and accessible spaces. Our roll-in showers, walk-in bathtubs, wheelchair lifts, kitchen lifts, and other accessible accessories (← tongue twister) can be found all over North America. You can find us in your neighbours’ home, your workplace, NBA stadiums, recreation halls, the Softball Hall of Fame, we even dream of one day building the first handicap accessible bathroom on Mars!
But enough about the many ways we help our clients live safer, more independent, and happier lives. You are here about our blog! Let us tell you why we have launched it.
Why are we blogging about Senior Lifestyle?
We turned 10 this year, and over the past decade we have met some amazing people from inspiring backgrounds. The majority of our clients fall into three categories:
- Individuals living with mobility difficulties (i.e., seniors, veterans, physically disabled, etc.)
- Loved ones of individuals living with mobility disabilities (i.e., spouses, children, parents, caregivers, etc.)
- Leaders in the community who want to make their space accessible for others (i.e., business owners, schools, religious organizations, community centres, etc.)
We have learned so much from our clients, and after a decade in the industry we have gathered A LOT of knowledge. Knowledge that would be helpful for our senior, mobility disabled, and caregiver clients. Our passion is helping all individuals lead independent and healthy lives. We do this daily by making accessible spaces with our products, but we want to take it one step further. And so we have created the Freedom Blog, a site dedicated to sharing relevant, engaging, and original content that enhances the lives of our readers and clients.
What will we be blogging about?
We are so excited to share our decade of experience and knowledge with you, here is just a glimpse of the type of lifestyle and accessible advice topics you can expect:
