Hi everyone,

I'm really enjoying my power chair but I have a problem.  My seating
position is less than "lady-like"  ie: my knees are as far apart as
possible in the sitting position.  The chair fits me well, but there
aren't any side guards like in my manual chair.  I think these guards
help keep my legs together.  I feel really uncomfortable sitting like
this, any suggestions?
My brother uses a bungee cord to keep his knees together when playing
quad-rugby, I really don't want to resort to that ;-)

Thanks,

River
Hi River,
 
How are you?  To hold my legs togetherI use a strap which I made, which I wrap just below my knees.  I have a piccy to show you which'll make it easier than trying to explain it:
 
  You see the grey thing across my legs?  That's the strap.  It's basically seat belt like material which velcro stitched onto it.  It's cheap to make, doesn't look to bad and does the job perfectly!
 
Hope that helps,
 
Love Smurf xxx
