International Wheelchair Day 2024

Wheelchairs are often associated with frailty, illness, and vulnerability, but they serve as valuable tools that offer freedom of movement and independence, liberating individuals from limiting circumstances. They are remarkable aids that significantly enhance the lives of those who use them.

Access to an electric wheelchair has had a positive impact on my quality of life. After experiencing frequent dislocations from using a manual chair, the electric wheelchair has allowed me to move around independently and safely, factors which cannot be stressed enough as to their importance.

As technology continues to advance, the future looks promising for wheelchairs, and I am eagerly anticipating the developments to come.
