How many wheelchair users do you see in work? Do you know any? Why don't we see them stacking the lower shelves in supermarkets or working the tills? |

I suspect they would be deemed a fire risk,working the till and the fire alarm goes off. I'm being totally serious now. So,have you seen anyone in a wheelchair in work? Give us some details please. I realise some maybe work in a secretarial role but i reckon percentage wise of all Wheelchair users many aren't employed. |

Theres 1.2m wheelchair users in the uk . 2 thirds of which are 60 years of age plus. This is why you dont see many |

@ogdenz | 28 April 22 | |
That still doesn't answer the questions.

@liamb17 | 28 April 22 | |
Youre asking if we have seen any at work and I gave stats as to why we dont see many

Ok Ill answer- How many wheelchair users do you see in work? Not many as per my stats Do you know any? No as there isnt many Why don't we see them stacking the lower shelves in supermarkets or working the tills? Because there arent many |

So,have you seen anyone in a wheelchair in work? No as there isnt many Give us some details please. - I gave you stats I realise some maybe work in a secretarial role but i reckon percentage wise of all Wheelchair users many aren't employed - depends on their personal disability |

If you asked 100 wheelchair users what do you do for a living,are you in work? what percentage would reply with yes I am gainfully employed?

@liamb17 | 28 April 22 | |
Theres usually a 30 percent disability gap point for employment. Since my stats showed you approx 330 thousand wheelchair users are of working age , thats approx 231 thousand potentialy in employment. Depending on their personal disabilities. If youre asking why , for example , cant they be a roofer . I hope that is pretty clear to you as to why they cant |
