Which Wheelchair?
If you’ve started the search for a wheelchair you already know how overwhelming it can be! From portability and price, to battery life and warranty- there is so much to think about. Not to fear, use this Tea with HB guide to figure out exactly what would suit you, and soon you’ll be whizzing around!
Unfortunately, wheelchairs are usually… UGLY. Super ugly. Medicalised and beige and eugh. But the good news is you can accessorise them! Especially when mobility aids are an extension of ourselves, it can help to make them feel like our own with our favourite colours, stickers of things we love, etc. Sadly, I am still searching for a wheelchair that suits my needs, so don’t worry if you are too! You are not alone.
