Helping Annalise enjoy the journey, safely and comfortably.
Annalise lives with Angelman syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that affects her movement, balance and communication.
With full-time support from her family and carers, everyday activities can be challenging — especially something as simple as travelling in the car.
For Annalise’s family, car travel had become increasingly difficult and, at times, unsafe as she outgrew conventional car seats. What was once a simple part of daily life became a source of stress and concern.
With support from Variety, Annalise’s family received two Careva Harnesses designed to provide safety, comfort and support during car journeys.
The impact has been immediate.
Annalise can now sit securely and comfortably, making every trip smoother and safer. For her family, it means less worry and more freedom, the chance to focus on spending time together rather than managing risk.
Now, Annalise can enjoy outings with her family and her beloved dog, Hogi — sharing moments that once felt out of reach.
Whether it’s a short drive to the park or a longer adventure, she can be part of the journey.
For Annalise and her family, what was once a stressful experience is now a joyful and inclusive part of everyday life — a powerful reminder of how the right support can make all the difference.
