Active Wheelchairs

We provide a complete active wheelchair service within London and the South East of England, from initial consultation through to supply and back-up service during the lifetime of your wheelchair. You can view our whole range at our Chessington showroom, or arrange for us to visit you for a home assessment. Our Prescriptive Assessors can demonstrate our products, assessing your needs, and recommending a suitable product and seating set-up to match your medical and lifestyle requirements, which we can then supply for you. We offer all our active wheelchairs and add-ons for purchase, and also offer an active wheelchair to hire service for those looking to try one out or needing one short-term, for example while theirs is being repaired.

Our Wheelchairs

We supply active wheelchairs from the leading manufacturers including Quickie, Küschall, TiLite, Progeo, Ki Mobility and Panthera. With both rigid and folding models in aluminium, titanium and carbon, and with a diverse array of features, we can ensure there is always a wheelchair that will be a perfect fit for your active lifestyle.

This includes basic affordable models with high levels of post-supply adjustability, such as the Quickie QS5X and Action 5 Rigid. These are ideal for those that are new to self-propelling and still discovering their best set-up for seating and propelling.

For more experienced users, we offer more advanced and lighter models, from mid-range wheelchairs like the Rogue ALX and Icon 60, right up to top of the range chairs such as the welded titanium TR or Octane Sub4, integrated suspension Ethos, and carbon-fibre Krypton R, Panthera X and Noir 2.0.

Power add-ons are increasingly popular for those looking to occasionally take the strain off propelling, as are handbike attachments that allow your chair to be taken off-road. We can supply add-ons including handbikes from Triride, Rehasense and others, as well as Alber's various models of power wheels, and Permobil's SmartDrive.

We also specialise in paediatric wheelchairs, whether for teenagers or younger children getting their first experience of self-propelling. Our models include highly adjustable ones like the Youngster 3, Zippie Simba and Little Wave Clik, which have adjustable seats that can grow with your child, as well as the teenage Rogue XP.

If you require specialist seating solutions, we are able to assist with this, whether your need is for clinical pressure relieving cushions such as Roho, Vicair or Jay ones, or posture-supporting yet lightweight backrests like the Axiom and Matrx ranges, and the J3 Freestyle Carbon. We source backrests and cushions from a wide range of manufacturers, ensuring that the best seating system is supplied to match your needs.

We work closely with the manufacturers we have chosen to partner with, and are able to offer custom-build solutions for those that need a request a little out of the ordinary, whether that simply be a style package in your favourite colours, or something more complex such as a bespoke seating arrangement or one-arm drive.

Try an Active Wheelchair

Nothing beats trying out several active wheelchairs to make sure you get the right one for you. As they are built to order to fit your measurements, and with the performance options of your choice, they require an assessment from a product specialist to provide.

Our Chessington showroom features our full range of active wheelchairs, and our product specialists are on-hand to take you through them. Alternatively we can arrange a home demonstration where we can take out a select number of wheelchairs for you to try.

If you are still not sure, then why not make use of our active wheelchair hire service, which lets you get a feel for one in your daily life, as well as helping you understand which features you would like on yours?

For those with particularly complex pressure care and postural requirements, we also offer a Clinical Seating Assessment service, ensuring that the appropriate level of comfort, support and pressure relief is provided.
