Hi @bigchow2011 welcome to the community! Have you asked your GP to refer you to NHS Wheelchair Services? They will assess you and advise you on what features on a chair will be best for you. Are you currently in receipt of PIP?Disability Gamechanger - 2019

Hi @bigchow2011 and a warm welcome to the community. I'm sorry you have been in so much pain. I too would suggest NHS wheelchair services as they should be able to provide you with suitable equipment. Please do let us know how you get on
