Summary An account is given of all the varying types of aids and appliances which were prescribed to the under 3‐year‐old handicapped children of all categories at the Regional Child Assessment Centre, Leeds, UK, between the years 1972–1977. They were required to help the child live as normal a life as possible, and progress along normal developmental lines. Altogether 430 aids were given to 163 children. The names of suppliers and the means of obtaining the aids are detailed at the end of this article.
