Where there’s a wheel there’s a way! BeachAbility is a charity providing specially designed manual, ballooned wheelchairs for use on the beach and other rough terrain. BeachAbility chairs are available for anyone that needs help with their mobility at no cost and can be booked out for up to three hours. Users should be able to transfer onto the chair and should be accompanied by a helper. A hoist is also available for those who are not able to transfer. The service is free to use, however, donations to BeachAbility are welcomed as they reinvest towards more

equipment and support for the future. Chairs are located at seven key sites: • West Park, St. Helier

• Bel Royal Kiosk, St. Aubin’s Bay • Le Braye Café, St. Ouen’s Bay • Winston Churchill car park, St. Brelade’s Bay • Long Beach, Gorey • La Mare Slip, St. Clement • Gunsite Café, St. Aubin’s Bay
