Wheelchairs Helping Africa


I think a major part to life is giving to others. Some major charity's are helping get wheelchairs to developing nations so that disabled people can actually get mobile. Check out Whirlwind International Wheelchair Charity! The latest design is from Nottingham University in the UK. These wheelchairs are make almost completely from spare bike parts, and even some old pieces of wood. The chair is designed to try and conquer the two main hurdles for mobility in Africa and other developing nations; rough terrain and cost. The tricycle type design, with it's main wheels at the front looks extremely capable at tackling rough terrain. These new designs look very durable. Check them out!
