Izzy Wheels

Multi Award-Winning Entrepreneurs and Forbes 30 Under 30, The Izzy Wheels sisters have a unique story and positive energy. They are experts on growing a global brand, and living life to the full.

Izzy Wheels provide a range of stylish wheel covers for wheelchairs. The multi award-winning company was founded by Irish sisters Ailbhe (25) and Izzy Keane (21). The idea was inspired by Izzy who was born with Spina Bifida and is paralyzed from her waist down. Izzy’s wheelchair was the first thing that people noticed about her but it wasn’t a reflection of her bright and bubbly personality. Together the sisters created a range of designer wheel covers so they could transform a medical device into a piece of fashion and self-expression. Their motto is ‘If you can’t stand up, stand out’.

The idea began as Ailbhe’s final year art college project in 2016 and following viral success online they are now selling their products in 35 countries. They have collaborated with 50 famous designers on their wheel cover collections and have a waiting list of over 1000 designers. They have been featured in some of the worlds biggest publications including Vogue, Forbes, Cosmopolitan, TechCrunch, Oprah Magazine, ABC News and BBC Three Amazing Humans.
