Regis Nedlands Residents Enjoy Sandcruiser Beach Wheelchair Bus Outing

Regis Nedlands residents recently ventured out to enjoy the sunrays and sea breeze, but this was no ordinary day at the beach. The bus trip down to Leighton Beach was particularly special for resident Lesley Brunini. 

Lesley used to live in picturesque Broome, home to some of the most beautiful beaches in Australia, and is now always eager to get down to the beach whenever she can.

However due to her mobility, she hasn’t been able to get close to the shore, until Regis Nedlands discovered the Sandcruiser Beach Wheelchair program. 

Megan-Jane, one of the Lifestyle Assistants at Regis Nedlands, found a fascinating article titled 'Salty dive a wheel winner.'

This led her to the Sandcruiser Beach Wheelchair program, which has an all-terrain wheelchair for hire.

Lesley didn’t know why this trip to the beach would be so special since she’d “been there a hundred times,” but thanks to this discovery, Lesley was able to get right out to the shore at Leighton Beach.

She blissfully enjoyed the sound of the waves and soaked up every moment.

All the residents had a blast that day since they were able to dip into the clear blue water.
