Laurence’s Incredible Trike: The Heart of Yirra Airtime
Every great innovation begins with a visionary. At Yirra Airtime, that visionary is Laurence—an engineer, innovator, and wheelchair user whose lived experience inspired the creation of the extraordinary Laurence Yirra Airtime trike.
Why Laurence Built the Trike
Laurence didn’t just design a trike—he designed freedom. Living with a wheelchair himself, Laurence understood the barriers that limited outdoor adventure. His mission was clear: to build something that gave people of all abilities the chance to experience movement, independence, and pure joy.
At Yirra Care, we believe empowerment starts with inclusive design. Laurence’s trike is proof of that vision—a mobility solution made with empathy, precision, and care.
