Have Fun! Organize A Power Chair Rally!

If you are a power chair user and you live in an area with a lot of power chair users, here’s a good idea to consider: A power chair rally.

A rally is a contest – usually involving a vehicle of some kind – in which you do various things and try to be the first across the finish line. Unlike a race, it’s not simply a matter of leaving the start line with everyone else and trying to get to the finish line before everyone else. A rally usually involves other things…perhaps a scavenger hunt or solving puzzles along the way.

Manual wheelchair: A boon for those who are physically impaired

As the name implies, a wheelchair is a chair with wheels. It was invented somewhere around 1670 in England to aid movement of people who were unable to walk either because of any disability or weakness in limbs. It is indeed a great invention as it has helped all those physically impaired to move without the assistance of others. Manual wheelchair consists of the mainframe which has two large wheels and armrests, a footrest and two small wheels in front. It can be moved pushing rims with the help of hands and comes fitted with manual breaks. Any person who is unable to walk but still has some power in his arms can make use of a wheelchair. The entire effort in propelling a wheelchair comes through the hands and upper body of the person sitting on it. However, for the aid of people who have difficulty with their hands as well, there is a version that uses electric power and no effort whatsoever is required on the part of the person sitting on the wheelchair.
