There has to be some way to help them but I guess it's going to be left to some charitable organisation or sponsorship but how much is available to provide mobility like a specially adapted transport I'm not sure. It's not like I see a lot of wheelchair users on public transport.
Before I was in a wheelchair and was on the bus it would often just drive by wheelchair users on the side of the road as they didn't want to get the ramp out.

Since I've been in the chair I don't even try public transport.
