The MagneLite Self-Propelled Wheelchair is an ultra-lightweight manual wheelchair built on a robust aluminium frame that makes it easy to lift, fold and transport. Designed for users who want independence and portability, this chair allows the user to self-propel also thanks to larger rear wheels and ergonomic handrims. Quick-release wheels and a compact fold make it ideal for travel, appointments, daily errands, or as a primary wheelchair at home or on the go.
Ultra-Light Aluminium Frame — Strong yet lightweight for easy lifting and transport.
Self-Propel Configuration — Larger rear wheels and ergonomic rims allow the user to self-propel comfortably.
Quick-Release Rear Wheels — Rear wheels detach easily to reduce folded weight and improve portability.
Fold-Flat Design — Folds compactly for storage or transport in a car boot.
Swing-Away & Removable Footrests — For smoother transfers and to reduce overall folded size.
Padded Seat & Backrest — Comfort padding enhances seated comfort over longer periods.
Ergonomic Padded Armrests — Flip-back or removable for easier side transfers.
Attendant Brakes — Allows a carer to safely control the chair when needed.

Chronically sick means that you have an illness that is likely to last a long time eg arthritis, angina. Disabled means substantially and permanently handicapped by illness or injury.
You do not have to be registered disabled to claim relief from VAT, but the nature of your illness or disablement must be specified in your declaration.
