Wheelchair Accessible Picnic Tables

Well this seems a most useful develpement for those wheel-chair bound; accessible picnic tables.

From the picture it seems that they have cut openings on each side of the table that allows the person in a wheelchair to "feel more like a part of the group". They have them in single and dual side access versions.

Loads of different price options ranging from a few hundred to just over a thousand dollars from Park and Pool.

"Wheelchair user" or even "people in wheelchairs" are much better phrases.
