Beach Wheelchairs

A huge thank you to Portobello Beach Wheelchairs once again!

Betty was able to spend another fantastic day experiencing the sun and fresh air at Porty last Friday. Despite us asking just the day before, the team were able to get everything sorted out for an 11am start the next day and Betty and her sons had another fabulous experience - and 90 mins of unexpectedly strong sun. Huge thanks to Melanie for arranging it and Kyrsta who made sure she was safely installed and kept warm with your delightful Polar bear fleece cover that Betty loved!

A huge thank you to everyone at the Golfers Rest North Berwick for an amazing weekend of fundraising for Beach Wheelchairs, with their pool competition and a fabulous Halloween party! 🎃🥰
An incredible £873.15 was raised, a phenomenal amount for a small charity like ours!
Thank you to everyone who came along, bought raffle tickets, donated prizes and gave so generously. It was lovely to see the community coming together to support us.

Your kindness helps us keep our service free, maintain our chairs and equipment, and support more people to enjoy the beach safely.

Thank you so much to everyone involved 🥰

A massive well done to our competition winner, Dave Coull who took home the cash prize and our 1st Place Trophy! 🏆💷

We would also like to thank everyone who helped organise the night and donated their time to make it such a success.

As the weather starts to turn, it’s lovely to see hires still going out, supported by our brilliant volunteers. 🌊

Behind the scenes, our volunteers are also busy maintaining the chairs, keeping them looking good and in great working order.

On Thursday, we sanded, cleaned and repainted the first batch of X8 powerchair wheels to help protect them from the sand and salt water. We think they’re looking really good!

Huge thanks to Imogen and Nikki for all their hard work.
