Webinar details

Newlife the Charity for Disabled Children is inviting healthcare professionals to attend Powered Wheelchairs: Finding the Right Fit on Tuesday 3 November 2026. The online session will run from 10.30am to 11.30am and will focus on considerations involved in choosing powered mobility equipment.
