Welcome to the Wheels 4 Africa Appeal

The wheels for Africa appeal is a project run by the Terence Mills Trust which was started up to help disabled people in Africa. The status of their disadvantaged and poor usually means they have to beg on the streets, most of the time going ignored. A suitable wheelchair opens up new possibilities and opportunities for an independent life and allows individuals to be no longer considered as outcasts from society, but valued members of their community.

We desperately need your help in the form of contributions to enable us to provide Wheelchairs For Africa. We also need wheelchair spare parts and wheelchairs which are no longer in use but which are in good order for our volunteers to repair.

It costs £400 each pallet when shipping wheelchairs to Africa- The Gambia. We are always looking for volunteers to help us in many ways, i.e. Drivers (to pick up Chairs), Website Designers, Fundraisers, Coaches and Therapists for in-country assessment. Contact us if you would like to help make a difference.

Please Give Us Your Support!
