Free wheelchairs at popular beach
Daily Post
|April 22, 2025
THE freedom to use a famous Gwynedd beach has been extended to more people after an investment.
Wheelchair users will be able to enjoy the popular Morfa Bychan beach (Black Rock Sands) after Cyngor Gwynedd bought purpose-built wheelchairs.
The wheelchairs, designed for disabled people with reduced mobility, will be available for enjoyment of the beach and the water until the end of September, free of charge.
The chairs are an innovative solution to the problems that usual wheelchairs might experience on the beach.
They have large wheels on the chair to make travelling over the sand easier, floats to enjoy the sea safely, and an adjustable harness to ensure the user is safe and comfortable in the chair.
Helen Griffiths, one of the first users of the purpose-built wheelchairs, said: "It's great to be able to come to the beach and enjoy the wheelchairs.
