Does anyone know where my sister might get a curb riser (or Curb Climber) for her electric wheelchair. Thank's for any help.

There's a clue in Quassia's answer although I guess you're not after a ramp.

If you put "Kerb climber" into Google, (not "Curb climber" - we're British here, not American!) you'll probably find something.

No I wasn't looking for a ramp. It's an attatchment that fits on the underneath of the chair so that when it touches a kerb or such like it tilts the chair backwards slightly.

I presume you need something like this, you may have to search for 'Kerb Climber + the model of chair or get one custom made.

looking up the manufacturers website would be a good place to start.
