The eighth annual Rick Hansen Wheels In Motion, presented by Scotiabank, takes place in communities across Canada on Sunday, June 13th, 2010. Funds raised support a wide range of life-enhancing initiatives that allow people with spinal cord injury (SCI) to fully participate in their community and live active and healthy lives.
Wheels In Motion is an important part of the Rick Hansen Institute’s commitment to minimize disability and maximize quality of life for people with spinal cord injuries. Events feature a wheelchair challenge where teams race against the clock through an obstacle course designed to foster a better understanding of what it is like to navigate through life in a wheelchair.
