The British Red Cross provides over 58,000 wheelchairs to people across the UK every year. Thanks to our incredible team of Red Cross wheelchair volunteers, we can offer wheelchair hire for just £17.50 a week, with free wheelchair accessories and 12-week servicing, for up to 20 weeks.

Hiring a wheelchair is the best way to guarantee wheelchair support for short-term use (six months or less) but if you are unable to afford the cost we may be able to offer further assistance.

We also work in partnership with the NHS and local commissioning groups to help provide a range of equipment to local residents. Learn more about our partnerships.
