Apparatus (1) for enabling temporary access to a wheelchair (15) comprises a number of wheelchair containers (2) and a control unit (5) which communicates with the containers and is arranged to interact with a user to permit release of the wheelchair from the container. Each container may be provided with a reader (16) for an identifier (17) carried by a wheelchair, so that the control unit can record that a wheelchair with that identifier has been released, and record return of that or another wheelchair to the container. The control unit may communicate with the control units of other apparatus at other locations, and/or with a central data processing facility (39). The system may be integrated with a transport reservation system.
