( Continued from page 1) If a wheelchair is the right thing to issue, the therapist will select a suitable chair. It may not be an exact fit, so they’ re often modified by our skilled techies, engineering adaptations to demonstrate love and care for each person. Once the chair’ s complete the therapist will explain how to use it and then each individual has the opportunity to receive a Bible in their own language and pray with the team pastor.
The team saw around 250 people in total, and distributed 130 wheelchairs, plus scores of crutches and mobility aids. It’ s been great to hear about the fantastic team spirit of the 10 volunteers – some first-timers, some veterans of many trips – and how working with our in-country partners, RILD, they’ ve changed the lives of so many people through the gift of a refurbished wheelchair. Some of the team were even fitting chairs in impromptu clinics to people in need at their hotel on the final evening.
You can watch a series of excellent short videos from the trip at www. throughtheroof. org or our Facebook page( search for‘ Through the Roof’ on Facebook) – they give a great insight into how a Wheels trip works, as well as letting you see the people your support is helping.
We’ re planning two more Wheels trips this year( Kenya from the 5th to the 15th of September, and Nigeria from the 14th to the 24th of November), and we’ re always researching future venues, partners, and distributions. If you’ re interested in joining a team, please contact Shaun at the office on 01372 749955. Wheels also relies on your financial support to keep changing lives. If you’ d like to donate towards a trip, or sponsor a wheelchair, please take a look at the enclosed form, visit www. throughtheroof. org, or give us a call. Thank you!

TTR on the Move
After 5 great years in our current Epsom office, we’ ve moved premises to a new building in Morden / Worcester Park. Our main phone number( 01372 749955) and e-mail addresses are the same, but our new address is Through the Roof, Alpha House, Alpha Place, Garth Road, Morden, Surrey, SM4 4TQ. Please send all post there from now on. We’ re sharing the new building with the Ascension Trust, who run Street Pastors, among many other exciting projects, and we’ re looking forward to seeing what connections and opportunities might develop from that relationship.
Hard at work in a new location
Our new office is a little smaller than the current one, so unfortunately we won’ t be able to accept any wheelchairs there. If you’ ve got one to drop off, please contact us, and we’ ll arrange a time you can deliver it to the Aldershot warehouse.
