A paediatric wheelchair also known as a children’s wheelchair is designed to keep up with the pace of young individuals. Smaller than a standard adult’s wheelchair, these are both comfortable and functional. They provide your child with the independence to go wherever they want.
These wheelchairs are versatile and adaptable allowing children freedom. We have a range of self-propelled models, that can also be pushed thanks to the rear handles, to suit most situations.

What should I consider when looking at Paediatric Wheelchairs for my child?
An important thing to consider when deciding on a children’s wheelchair is the fit of the wheelchair for the child. It is not only important to make sure the seat width is correct but also the seat depth is correct for the child using the wheelchair. If the seat of the wheelchair is too deep then you risk sores developing at the back of the knees.
