Towards a Circular Economy in NHS Wales – Mobility Equipment Repair and Reconditioning

Across Wales, there are approximately 60,000 individuals who are served by the Artificial Limb & Appliance Service (ALAS). Since the First World War, when limb services were established to support war-wounded amputees, ALAS has been providing, maintaining, and reconditioning wheelchair equipment across the UK, and in Wales through services based in Cardiff and Wrexham.
