Our Story

Dianne and Paul started the business in 2008 after experiencing first-hand the need for accessible transport. Paul grew up with his mother who had MS, which is a rare condition from the 60s. Whilst, Dianne has a son with short stature and has cared for her parents who have both had cancer on several occasions and her dad contracted Guillian Barre twice. 

The idea eventuated when Paul’s mum became wheelchair bound and they needed to move her out of her nursing home.  Taxis were unreliable and so they bought a vehicle to run her around. Through talking to people in the community and hearing that others were struggling with the same issue they decided to begin a part time business. With the support of Dianne and demand growing, the business has flourished and Wheelaway is now operating in both Victoria and New South Whales.

Our Mission

We aim to assist people to have a better way of life and to create a fully inclusive country. We understand that people have different requirements and aim to find a solution that suits you.  Please do not hesitate to call us and discuss what you need.
