Self Propelled Wheelchairs

Self propelled wheelchairs help those with reduced mobility to retain their independence and freedom. These mobility aids are safe, easy to push and designed to give you greater independence and freedom, as you don't need someone else to push you. However, if you need a rest, another person can take over and push, too. Lightweight self propelling wheelchairs require less strength to push and are also easy to store and transport. You'll also find reclining wheelchairs that accommodate different angles so you can always get comfortable.

A self-propelled wheelchair is one that is primarily designed to be powered by the person using it. They have large rear wheels making it easier for you to push yourself along. You can usually still use these chairs like a transit chair and have them pushed by a carer or relative, where necessary, but they're designed to make it easier for you to get around under your own power. 

The larger rear wheels on this type of chair can mean that it's easier to get over lumps and bumps than you may find with a transit or transport wheelchair.

A self-propelled wheelchair could help you to get around under your own power, so you can lead a more independent lifestyle and continue to enjoy your favourite activities. This type of chair also allows others to push it, so you can ask for help if needed.

Someone with a mobility issue that is hampering their everyday lifestyle may find a self-propelled wheelchair useful in helping to get themselves around.

Yes, it is possible to push a self propelling wheelchair. In fact, self propelled wheelchairs are often designed to be pushed if or when your loved one is unable to propel the chair themselves.

This depends on your ability, your mobility level and the model of your self propelled wheelchair. It may take some practice to get the hang of using a self propelled wheelchair, but with time and patience you will become more proficient at manoeuvring the chair. If you have any difficulties using a self propelled wheelchair, you can ask one of our healthcare professionals.

It's important to make sure you purchase the right sized wheelchair for your needs. Please double-check the product specifications to make sure it's right for you.

If you have any questions about manual non specialist wheelchairs, you can contact our Expert Advice Service for help.
