Wheelchair Services

This request has been withdrawn by the person who made it. There may be an explanation in the correspondence below.

Dear Northern Health and Social Care Trust (Northern Ireland),

I would like to request information.
What does Wheelchair Services do with powered wheelchairs and parts for powered wheelchairs that they no longer have a need for?
What happens to powered wheelchairs that are returned to Wheelchair Services by their user?

Is a person able to purchase their wheelchair from Wheelchair Services if said wheelchair has come to the end of its life and is being replaced by Wheelchair Services?
Can an end user of a wheelchair from Wheelchair Services purchase their wheelchair under any circumstances?

Yours faithfully,

Jack Smith
