Ivy Wright, 10, has been presented with a new powered wheelchair, which will allow her to move around independently at school and spend more time with her friends.

Ivy’s mum Dayle said: “We live in a very hilly area, so the manual wheelchair causes Ivy to tire easily. We’re so thankful to Cashino and CHIPS for this wheelchair.”
