yea, i go through a back a year, just ring up a wheelchair shop/dealer and tell them the chair u have, and they will get it in. Its a bit pricey for a bit of canvass, but hey! isn't everything to do with disability.

Cheers for that. Will ring them. Is there an online shop does anyone know as they might be cheaper.
I do it erratically, often with bits fallling off.

I get mine from www.sportaid.com in the US - much cheaper than using a UK supplier.

When I'm re-doing upholstery I actually go thru a local upholstery shop vs wheelchair suppliers. The guy I found does amazing work, with better, more durable materials for HALF the price and half the time! . Plus it's all custom and I can chose what I like, no industry standards. Maybe you could phone one in your area and ask if they would take it on.

I did think of that but was unsure. I wanted something embroided in the back so i might ask my local one for a price, cheers
