Ypush the wheelchair is airline and cruise line compatible. Carers are at great risk of injury from pushing people around. The potential of this product to make a profound difference both in the life of the carers, and in the life of the cared for, is absolutely huge.

It’s difficult enough to push someone in a wheelchair on the flat, but throw in a hill or a few tricky surfaces, and it can be pretty much impossible. This severely limits access and creates barriers to where you can and can’t go.

We realised that the reason you rarely see a wheelchair out and about is actually because it’s just too physically demanding for the carer. If the carer is struggling and the occupant feels like a burden, creating difficulties and anxiety, it’s not going to be a happy day for anyone. Much easier for everyone to stay at home.

Using the Ypush, you simply need to walk behind as there is no effort required, enabling everyone to relax and concentrate on having a good time. It can be pushed like a manual wheelchair, but when you need power assistance, the carer simply presses a lever on the right handlebar with their thumb. To turn left or right, simply press a button located under the handle grips. Reverse is also available at the touch of a button
