Looking back at personal favourite projects from my "Five Years in the Making"...
2018 - Two years of working with @HackOnWheels resulting in the first modular, customisable wheelchair - then getting to present the project, and a Generative Design wheelchair concept at #AULondon

Limb different #TommyGirl FTW! As someone with a congenital limb difference, I’ve been adapting to things my entire life! My 1st time trying #TommyAdaptive, I couldn’t hide my excitement that something was adapted FOR ME! #TommyPartner https://t.co/iJWa649NlR

@differencenorth @guardian Press a lever to swap in different: 1. front wheels to easily wheel on sand, snow, offroad. 2. colour / shape seats for fashion. 3. backrests so you dont have a heavy one when your wheeling but have ergonomic support when your watching tv etc

Episode two is out yo! Hear about the work @HackOnWheels is doing to customise #wheelchairs, how @Gatwick_Airport went autism-friendly, and why special guest @RaymondAntrobus feels poetry has a place in deaf schools. https://t.co/v3eldxtV1Q

“Wheelchairs today are like the early days of glasses frames. When you can only wear one kind of frame, then glasses become stigmatising.” Great article on how we’re changing this by creating wheelchairs you can can continuously adapt to you body, environment & style #50Radicals

What a week! Fab feature on the amazing work of @HackOnWheels disrupting wheelchair design with tech https://t.co/Irsep1mCs3 and announced as a 2018 New Radicals winner https://t.co/DdeC3fNSOv 🎉#ProudFunder

[Will @PixelatedPike]

A new wheelchair company that puts as much emphasis on value for money as unique design - hardly surprising that it was started by a wheelchair user. I look forward to giving their chairs a test-drive! 👊

Great article on us in @MetroUK ! “Glasses wearers have control over every aspect of their of their design and are offered a product that caters to their individual needs. Yet most wheelchair users are still expected to make use of a standard model” @cellule_studio @SteveCox3D
