Naveed and Samiya Parvez

Naveed and Samiya share their inspiring journey of how their unconditional love for their disabled son Diamo lead them down the path of seeking a life changing solution to meet his additional needs.

Empathy creates radical impact

Naveed and Samiya Parvez’s journey began when their son, Diamo, was born in 2003. Diamo was diagnosed with severe developmental delay. He was quadriplegic, and had very little head control, requiring orthotic support. Through their heartfelt experience of the impact this had on Diamo’s everyday life, they sought a solution for themselves. Through scanning and 3D printing, they have developed a system to create tailor-made orthotics that take weeks (rather than months) to produce. They are designed to fit a growing child, and to improve the child’s quality of life. Sadly, Diamo passed away in 2012, but Naveed and Samiya have formed their company, ‘Andiamo’, in his memory to support the needs of children globally.
