I've been a full time wheelchair user for the last 18 years and I was lucky enough to learn wheelchair skills early on after my injury. It's not an exaggeration to say that learning wheelchair skills shaped my life.Whether it is travelling through inaccessible environments, building a career in programme development, waterskiing from the back of a boat at 40 kph or enjoying all that London has to offer, having the skills to get around has meant I can do it all.I believe that having wheelchair skills is a fundamental right and this led me to found The Wheelchair Skills College, with the aim of giving every wheelchair user access to wheelchair skills training to build confidence and gain independence.Check out my website https://www.wheelchairskills.org and if you'd like to chat wheelchair skills then drop me a message.
