Hi @vara,
A bit time ago I come across articles shared via FB (Facebook) that one mum who had disable daughter was unhappy of lack clothing for disable daughter.
The mum decides to set up her won business and make a cloths for disable children. The wonderful mum went even one step further and makes the cloths which are use to be dress by disable child when tries to dress her/himself.
If you search for mumpreneurs making clots for disable children you make come through the article yourself.
I have suggestion for creating survey monkey's questionnaire and send via messages to disable organisation on FB to share on they timeline.
I hope you will find answers to your researching area.

@iza thank you very much for your feedback. So I am assuming there is a market for such clothes.

@vara The purple pound is a market well under catered for and a big market. no many stores outlets cater for us.
