Drive winch
The client is a wheelchair user and has a steep path to his front door, which exhausted his carer when pushing, both up and downhill.
The solution was to provide a hand winch which the carer could rotate – a motorised winch was tried, but found to be extremely slow and it was found impossible to change its gearbox so this was discarded.
It is now much easier for the carer to help the client to the front door.
