Oh that is amazing... that's so much better than previous designs, which could only handle very specific uniform stairs.

In theory yes, but at a cost of at least £33,000, it won't be in the reach of many people unfortunately. This is the problem with a lot of mobility innovation. My new manual chair is costing me £4,400 and I don't get any help to pay for it.

hopefully the cost will come down over time, and we may get a government that takes funding mobility aids seriously!

That is a cost that will be out off most people realms

To be honest I didn’t look at the cost I just thought I would check YouTube as I have sacked myself till after dinner time

Emmm bad day at the office is all I am saying ha ha

But anyway It poped up on my sub feed to though I would check it out and was blown away so though I would post it as a lovely post

Hopefully in time as they move forward they can get the costs down to a level that’s acceptable for most

And do think the government should be subsiding to help people in need
