Memory Wheelchairs

We started this service about 4 years ago when very sadly we lost a special friend. We purchased a wheelchair and called it Helen’s Chair. Since then each wheelchair is named in memory of a passed loved one or someone special, each person continuing to give a helping hand to someone in need. We offer to “loan out” our lightweight, easy foldable wheelchairs, including paediatric wheelchairs, on a short term basis, free of charge, to anyone for any need.… recovery from injury or surgery, end of life care or just support to enable mobility and access to daily living with dignity.

We now have 19 wheelchairs, and we desperately need to buy wheelchair bags, coseytoes covers, waterproof covers and maintain the wheelchairs we have to enable our users to use our Memory Wheelchairs. Sadly, anything that supports disability is expensive so we need all your support to raise the funds to help us continue to help others. We work closely with Morecambe Bay Hospital, hospital outreach services such as Physio Support, End of Life Care Team, Community Nurses, local GP Practices, our local Age Concern and Citizens Advice.

If you know anyone who we can help or wish to follow our page and know more about us please ask them to contact our Facebook page:

It goes without saying that we could not offer this completely free service to support end of life care, accident or injury without the support of friends, family and Kendal Town FC who assist us with storage when our wheelchairs are in stock.

Thank you in advance for all your support, please spread the word. Xx
