Anyone who uses a wheelchair for any length of time will appreciate new wheelchair seat covers. For someone who also spends time outside in the cold at all, than the best possible choice you can make is a seat cover made of sheepskin.
It's not hard to see why. For all the same reasons that people have loved wearing wool for centuries - it's soft, warm and comfortable.
Another reason that the sheepskin wool is such as effective protection against the cold is because it is very dense, and naturally moisture resistant. That means that the seat will remain comfortable even when it is quite cold outside, and it will keep your body much, much warmer and more comfortable.
While it's true that the real sheepskin seat covers are more expensive, it is a wise investment, as it will last a very, very long time. Many people swear by them, and won't use anything but!
Synthetic sheepskin will also help provide comfort and warmth, and also provide a nice barrier between your skin and the cold steel and plastic of a wheelchair. It won't be as effective as the natural product of course, but as a cheaper quick method of warmth, it does help.
Lastly, even for people who aren't dealing with the cold or discomfort of wheelchair parts, at some point the wheelchair seat will get dirty.
You can much more easily keep the seat clean and fresh if you keep extra sets of wheelchair seat covers on hand. And it is also an effective way to really help to minimize wear and tear of the seat itself.
You can buy just the seat cover, or a replacement seat with its own extra cover.

I've worked with Anna on several purchases, some quite grandiose in terms of scale, and I can easily say that not only was Anna incredibly helpful, but the depth and breadth of knowledge and professionalism she imparts is bar none when it comes to special needs. Frank, |

These pajamas have changed our lives! My special needs daughter turns 13 years old this month and now wakes up with uncompromised pull-ups. The back zip pj's also cut down on her skin picking. ..This clothing is so well made and works so well that I think you should look into Seeing if medical insurance would cover it.
