Since then we have managed to source and send over 3500 wheelchairs and hundreds of other mobility aids overseas. A number of countries have benefited from this initiative. These include; Bangladesh, Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, Palestine, Somalia, Syria and Yemen. Research has found that in developing countries only 10% of disabled people possess a wheelchair, which means millions of disabled people in third-world countries face unnecessary barriers to fulfilling their life potential. Many simply cant afford a wheelchair which can cost between £300-£500. 46% of those without a wheelchair have never left their homes. One mans waste is another mans treasure. This phrase epitomises the ethos behind Wheels to Heal. £25 is all it costs to rescue and deliver door to door one good quality used wheelchair to a disabled person in need - transforming their life by enabling access to education, employment and society as a whole. It also provide much needed relief for their carers.
