I'm a final-year Product Design student at Nottingham Trent University, passionate about creating thoughtful, functional, and sustainable design solutions. With over a decade of experience as a professional wheelchair tennis player representing Great Britain, I bring a unique perspective shaped by resilience, discipline, and creative problem-solving- skills I now apply to my design practice.
FreePush- the wheelchair push trainer
FreePush is the revolutionary home fitness solution designed specifically for wheelchair users. In the UK alone, over 7 million people live with a mobility impairment, and studies show they are nearly twice as likely to be physically inactive. FreePush changes that.
FreePush is the only exerciser that accurately replicates the elliptical wheelchair push technique. This innovative design allows users to build strength, improve technique, and boost cardiovascular fitness, all from the comfort of their home.
Designed with independence in mind, FreePush is lightweight, foldable, and easy to use without assistance. It trains both the pushing and recovery muscles essential for independent wheelchair movement, and improved shoulder health. With affordability at its core, FreePush opens access to quality exercise for more people than ever before.
