Lord's Taverners
With your amazing support we were able provide Lord's Taverners with a grant to deliver multi-sport wheelchairs to some wonderful young wheelchair basketball players.
The young people are thrilled to have their new sports wheelchairs and have been putting them to fantastic use!
Jason and Finlay (pictured) have already used their new chairs to play for Scotland under 15s.
“Jason has been playing wheelchair basketball for 2 years now. Before he had his own chair he had been using one of the clubs chairs. As it was a shared chair every week he would have to re adjust it to suit him again or look through the cupboard to find wheels that fit, trust me this is no easy task. The chair he used wasn't exactly a great fit for him either. It was getting too small for him and his game play had to compensate for that. Now, thanks to all the help and support he has received he has his own chair made specifically for him. It has helped so much with his game play he sits so much taller and moves in it better than he ever has. He loves it and is in it every opportunity he gets. We could not be more grateful.” - Jason's mother
