Go Kids Go!
We run wheelchair skills workshops for young wheelchair users.
Our workshops are designed to enable independence and to help ensure that the young people are able to reach their full potential. We run workshops for manual and powered wheelchair users. We bring extra wheelchairs so that parents, siblings and friends can join in with the activities.
Ade Adepitan MBE, the TV presenter, learnt wheelchair skills with us as a young man and is now a patron of Go Kids Go.
We also run disability/wheelchair awareness workshops in mainstream schools for pupils and staff.
