Company History
Learn more about the history of Brotherwood®, from our beginning over 35 years ago, manufacturing the very first 'WAV' as it is known today.
About Brotherwood®
Brotherwood® have been manufacturing Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles since 1985. Our attention to detail, customer care and commitment to quality mean our ‘WAVs’ carry an excellent reputation across the world. Brotherwood® are regarded as the pioneers of the modern ‘Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle’, changing the perception of disabled transport from conspicuous high-roof vans to discreet everyday wheelchair cars.
Our accessible cars enable wheelchair passengers to travel in comfort, inclusively and safely; sitting closely with other passengers within the vehicle, with a comfortable ride and good visibility. Our wheelchair-friendly vehicles are discreet and stylish. View our new wheelchair accessible vehicles for sale, or browse our approved used mobility cars. Brotherwood wheelchair cars are also available via Motability, or short or long term hire with variable rental periods.
About Brotherwood®
The Rogers Family
When Kate & Chris were looking for a new Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle for their son Frank, they were determined to find a vehicle which enabled Frank to travel inclusively. They found the perfect WAV in the form of the Volkswagen Caddy Morelife.
The Wilkinson Family
The Wilkinson family can now enjoy comfortable journeys in and around their home town of Southampton and further afield, with daughter Sophie travelling inclusively as part of the family, seated in her bespoke wheelchair - thanks to their new Brotherwood V-Class.
The Allen Family
When the Allen family took delivery of their new wheelchair accessible Volkswagen Sharan from Brotherwood, they knew to expect an exceptional service, as it represents their tenth Brotherwood WAV - an association of over 30 years dating back to 1989.
ENGINEERING TO ENABLE
The Brotherwood® Difference
Explore the unique benefits of a Brotherwood® Wheelchair Accessible Car:
Comfortable Ride
When designing our WAVs, we place emphasis on wheelchair passenger comfort, ensuring that the wheelchair travels in the centre of the vehicle, on a level floor. Sitting centrally creates a smoother ride, with a naturally ergonomic seating position.
Inclusive Design
The lowered floor and central wheelchair position of a Brotherwood® conversion enables wheelchair users to travel inclusively with family and friends. Up-front next to the driver, or between the passenger seats, wheelchair users travel as part of the group.
Safety Accredited
Each WAV we manufacture is tested to the highest possible standards for wheelchair passenger safety, ensuring peace of mind. Even wheelchairs up to 190kg can travel safely. Our safety accreditations include European Type Approval and PAS-2012.
Expertly Engineered
Although our conversion process is extensive, our wheelchair passenger vehicles blend discretely with unadapted cars on the road. Take a look at our manufacturing process, and see what goes into making a Brotherwood wheelchair adapted car.
