Project / Project number: BK2021/079 / Status: Complete

Wheelchair with more comfortable joystick
The challenge
The client’s arthritis makes it painful to grasp the small knob on her wheelchair joystick.
The solution
A larger knob was made from a tennis ball and a short length of broom handle. The large size and soft texture is much more comfortable
The benefit
The client can now operate her wheelchair more easily.
