Getting Wheelchair on INACCESSIBLE Barge | Paraplegic Driving Canal Boat and Transfer | Pontcysyllte

Paraplegic Wheelchair to Boat Transfer

We met up with Craig's parents who were on a barge holiday for the first time travelling along the Shropshire Union Canal. It was an interesting experience and we got to try out going through locks as well as riding over the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct near Llangollen. This was not a specially adapted wheelchair accessible barge, it was just a normal inaccessible canal boat. It wasn't super easy for Craig and his wheelchair to get onto the boat but it was possible. We demonstrate how Craig transferred onto the barge and what the experience was like for him as a wheelchair user.
