National Wheelchair Data Collection Quarterly Publication Q2 2023/24

Details

The national wheelchair data collection was introduced to establish a better understanding of the current situation of NHS wheelchair services in England and to support commissioners and providers to improve services. Wheelchairs provide a significant gateway to independence, well-being and quality of life for thousands of adults and children and the collection will enable benchmarking and the use of transparent data to drive improvements.

The collection is a quarterly Integrated Care Board (ICB) level collection that captures aggregate information on the number of registered users of NHS funded wheelchair services, time from referral to equipment delivery or modification. Data is also collected on expenditure on wheelchair services.

Official statistics are produced impartially and free from any political influence.
