Introduction[edit | edit source]
Wheelchair users are people who already have a wheelchair or who can benefit from using a wheelchair because their ability to walk is limited. Wheelchair users include:
- children, adults and the elderly; men, women, girls and boys;
- people with different mobility impairments, lifestyles, life roles and backgrounds;
- people living and working in different environments including rural, semi-urban and urban.
The needs of each wheelchair user will vary. However, they all need an appropriate wheelchair.
