'Buggy Boards' for electric wheelchairs

My 6 year old son rides on the back of my wheelchair by standing on the small wheels at the back. This concerns me as a) he slips off and b) he could well break them! I want a buggy board style of attachment that is suitable not just for toddlers but up to the end of primary school.

Until one of the manufacturers comes up with one, try REMAP - they may have done something like this

can you provide a picture of the back of your wheelchair? This way I could see what would fit into it easier ; )

We're developing a toddler carrier at the Bath Institute of Medical Engineering. One option we're looking at is a buggy board idea. We would value any feedback on our ideas. Please get in touch.
