wheelchair

A wheelchair is a mobility aid that is designed to assist people who have difficulty walking or standing for extended periods of time. It consists of a seat, backrest, footrests, and wheels, and can be manually propelled or electrically powered. Wheelchairs have been used for centuries, with the first recorded use dating back to the 6th century BCE in China. In Yorkshire, there are several organizations that provide wheelchair services and support for people with disabilities, including the Yorkshire Wheelchair Service and the Yorkshire Disabled Association.
