Without the provision of accessible boats, disabled people are mostly denied experiences that able-bodied people take for granted. Wheelyboats remove the barriers to water-based activities thus enabling disabled people to participate alongside and on equal terms with their able-bodied counterparts. For their users, it is an important factor in the quality of life they are able to lead.

We are a small charity that achieves great things: we help venues that are open to the public acquire Wheelyboats for the benefit of their disabled visitors and we help groups and organisations acquire Wheelyboats for their own use. We have supplied 239 Wheelyboats to projects on inshore waters, lochs, lakes, reservoirs, rivers and canals all over the UK. As far as we know there is no other charity designing, building, funding and supplying this type of craft anywhere in Europe.
