The services we provideThe service is clinic based and offers a comprehensive assessment of an individual's wheelchair needs, taking into account their physical needs, where the wheelchair is to be used and the abilities of their main carer. Following assessment we can provide a range of manual and powered wheelchairs. We also provide a service for: Indoor/Outdoor Powered WheelchairsThese wheelchairs can improve significantly people's independence and quality of life. However, there is a strict eligibility criteria and the individual must undertake a detailed assessment process.

This is done in conjunction with their own therapists and wherever possible their carer.
