Finding the perfect wheelchair is about matching your needs. Consider your strength and upper body mobility. If you have limited arm strength, a power wheelchair might be ideal. Think about your activity level – will you need manoeuvrability indoors or navigate rough terrain? The environment you’ll use it in matters too. Will it be your primary mode of transportation or for occasional use at home? Consulting a healthcare professional or occupational therapist is crucial. They can assess your needs and recommend the most suitable wheelchair type and features to ensure comfort, safety, and independence.

Yes, ALL our wheelchairs fold for easier storage and transportation via road, rail, air and sea.

Since all our wheelchairs fold, they make for easy transport and will fit in the trunk of any car. Smaller cars might require removing wheels or folding seats.

Wheelchairs are more than just mobility aids – they’re tools for independence! Here
are a few benefits:

i. They allow users to participate in daily activities, get to work or school, and explore their surroundings.
ii. Wheelchairs can significantly improve quality of life by increasing mobility and fostering a sense of freedom and self-reliance.
iii. They are conveniently lightweight, at only 16 lbs, and fold snug for easy transport via land, air, sea and rail.
iv. Your safety is rest assured as they have small wheels and are not self-propelling, so a caregiver will be needed to push the chair.

Maintaining good posture while using a wheelchair promotes comfort, prevents pain, and reduces the risk of pressure sores.

Seating pressure relief cushions can help distribute weight evenly and minimize pressure points.

Proper positioning with backrests and headrests that offer good support is also crucial.

Talk to a healthcare professional for advice on finding the right seating system and ensuring proper posture while using your wheelchair.
