history
Irish Wheelchair Association was founded in 1960 by 8 wheelchair users. Having travelled to the first Paralympic Games in Rome they realised life for people with physical disabilities had to be better and offer more. Since then we have grown to be one of Irelands largest charities, providing services to over 4000 people every day. Ireland has changed over the last 60 years, but Irish Wheelchair Associations vision remains the same – where people with disabilities enjoy equal rights, choices and opportunities in how they live their lives.
