Wheelchair Distribution
Motivation has taken steps to establish a nation-wide distribution network for wheelchairs and other mobility equipment via our local partner organisations.
Our local partners, Rehab Lanka and the Spinal Injuries Association (SIA) produce wheelchairs according to standards set by Motivation which incidentally are those adopted by the Sri Lanka Standards Institute. The SIA also produces and distributes special seating wheelchairs throughout our partner network for children with cerebral palsy.
