Description
Chunc was born out of a father's vision; Richard Smith, Managing Director of the HR Smith Group, who wanted a wheelchair for his daughter that was comfortable, had a postural management seating system and was easy to use for the carers. Working closely with disabled young people, healthcare professionals and carers gave Richard an insight into exactly what users needed from a wheelchair. Using innovative materials and engineering technology transferred from the HR Smith Group aerospace business, a unique and patented modular design was created that gives the Chunc a level of user adaptability and adjustment not previously available in a wheelchair.
