Hello, I just had an accessibility question for the wheelchair using folks. Is going on well maintained grass fine? Or is it a bit problematic?

I'm not, but I have family who are. Wheelchair on grass is hard going, even if it's very flat and well maintained. I wouldn't want to do it except over very short distances. If you have to, turn the wheelchair user around and go backwards, but I always feel that is even more embarrassing for them.
