Accessibility matters. And it's time we started listening ♿🖤

We're proud to see our ambassador, Abbie Breakwell Wheelchair Tennis Player using her platform to raise awareness of the accessibility challenges wheelchair users still face in everyday life.

Abbie recently joined her local MP Adam Thompson MP for a push around their local town, highlighting some of the barriers that can make getting around more difficult than it should be.

From pavements and dropped kerbs to shops and public spaces, accessibility needs to be considered at every level. Everyone deserves the freedom to get around safely and independently 🖤

It's brilliant to see Abbie helping bring these conversations to the forefront and working with local representatives to highlight where improvements are needed.

Thank you, Abbie, for continuing to use your voice to make a difference 🖤👏

WHEELCHAIR WEDNESDAY | Lucy Shuker 🖤♿

This week, we're catching up with Paralympian Lucy Shuker! 🎾

Lucy uses an Octane Sub4 as her everyday wheelchair and loves just how lightweight it is, making a real difference to her day to day life and giving her greater freedom to get around with ease!

Completely bespoke to her measurements, her Sub4 is also incredibly manoeuvrable, helping make everyday activities that little bit easier 💫

As Lucy highlights, it's not just about the wheelchair itself. The knowledge and expertise of the RGK team make a huge difference, taking the time to understand each individual and get their setup just right. Because no two wheelchair users are the same! 🖤

♿ WHEELCHAIR WEDNESDAY | Charlie

This week, we’re rolling into Wednesday with Charlie Mailer! 🏀🖤

Charlie has had a huge year in wheelchair basketball, reaching the GB Under 23 trials and representing Scotland! His Elite X has played a big part in helping him reach this point, giving him the support and performance he needs to compete at his best and keep pushing towards his goals 🏀

As Charlie puts it, he wouldn’t be able to compete at the level he does without a chair that can perform alongside him. We LOVE seeing our chairs helping athletes take that next step in their careers, and we can’t wait to see what Charlie achieves next! 🖤👏

♿ WHEELCHAIR WEDNESDAY | Maya

This week, we’re rolling into Wednesday with Maya Mynx 🖤💪

Maya uses a Tiga Sub4, and her chair has given her so much more freedom and independence! 🦽💨 From getting stronger in the gym to wheeling faster on the basketball court, her chair helps her keep doing what she loves 💪

But it’s about more than that. Maya is also challenging stereotypes and showing people what wheelchair users can do, both in and out of their chairs! 👏🖤

We LOVE seeing our community pushing boundaries, building strength and doing things their own way! 💪

♿ WHEELCHAIR WEDNESDAY | David

This week, we’re rolling into Wednesday with wheelchair racing legend David Weir 🛞🖤

David is in a CeramiX Octane Sub4 in Jet Black, paired with his custom TC MAXX hand rims and his StreetJet attached to his chair. ⚡️

The StreetJet helps get him around town more easily, taking some of the strain out of manually pushing when he’s out and about. 💨

We LOVE seeing the different ways our community makes their RGK setup work for them 🥹🖤

Since then, she’s gone on to compete at Rio 2016, Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024, while helping Great Britain secure silver at the 2018 World Championships.

Her success has continued on the international stage, with Joy winning bronze with Team England at Birmingham 2022 before helping the team go one step further and claim wheelchair basketball gold at Glasgow 2026 🥇🔥
