Wheelchair Superstore is an independent UK guide to wheelchairs, ramps and mobility accessories. Start with the section that matches your situation: each guide explains what to measure and compare before you buy, using manufacturer details and UK guidance from the NHS and GOV.UK.

Help with Costs and Assessments

If you need a chair for regular or long-term use, the NHS wheelchair service or an occupational therapist can assess seating and posture. The NHS explains walking aids, wheelchairs and mobility scooters, and GOV.UK covers financial help for disabled people, including VAT relief on some mobility equipment.

Begin with the person, the journeys and the support available

A wheelchair shortlist should start with the intended user and the situations in which the chair will be used. Record whether use is mainly indoors, outdoors or mixed; the regular distances and surfaces; where transfers take place; and who will propel, drive, fold, lift or maintain the chair. Include storage, transport and charging arrangements where relevant. These practical notes help separate manual, transit, self-propelled, electric, folding and specialist formats.
