Guides

Get out there with a Series 5

Electric wheelchairs are designed to help you live your life, whether that’s moving around your home or workplace, going on countryside walks, visiting the beach or going abroad on holiday.

We’ve put together a practical guide that show what the Series 5 is capable of when it comes to tackling different terrains. Below you’ll find practical, easy to follow advice on where and how you can use the Series 5, using tips from our team and more importantly, our customers!

Uneven pavements and cobbles
Snow
Sand
