Hi I'm new to Lemmy hopefully I'm doing this right. I was wondering if anyone in this community could help point me in the right direction in regards to choosing a wheelchair. (I live in the UK for context)
I've finally accepted I need a wheelchair as I am currently housebound and cannot walk more than 25 meters with my crutches on a good day.
The problem is I have no clue where to even start in terms of looking into wheelchairs. I've heard getting a manual wheelchair with a power attachment is beneficial as it folds down (whereas power chairs don't) and my new apartment isn't very big.
Any wheelchair users able to help point me in the right direction?
