A good news story today from our partners at - who are part of the Seating Matters family.

Daniel is a passionate disability advocate and long-term client of Motion Wheelchairs. He relies on his wheelchair and vehicle every day for work and independence.

Earlier this month, Daniel’s car was stolen from his home in the Mornington Peninsula, and his fully customised wheelchair left abandoned, badly damaged.

Yesterday, our team had the privilege of surprising Daniel with a fully restored chair, while the incredible presented him with a replacement vehicle.

To help Daniel get back on the road with confidence, Motion Wheelchairs will also support and cover the cost of installing speciality drive controls into his new car.

We’re so grateful to and for sharing Daniel’s story and helping make this moment possible.

Please follow along to find out more. At Seating Matters, our clients are never “just clients” — they’re part of our community.
