A disabled youngster was taken on a pony-drawn chariot ride along Broughty Ferry beach as part of a continuing mission to open up the outdoors to wheelchair users.
Kevin, 10, explored the sands of the Dundee coast thanks to Simon Mulholland of charity Pony Axe S and his trusted steed Obama.
He has made it his mission to make the countryside accessible to those who use wheelchairs.

Mr Mulholland is in Courier Country promoting carrying on his good work with the wheelchair chariot, which takes disabled people across off-road and rugged terrain they would otherwise be unable to access.
Scottish health secretary Shona Robison was also given a tour of the beach by Mr Mulholland and Obama as the benefits of Pony Axe S were put on display.

Mr Mulholland said: “Beaches, fields and rutted tracks are often thought to be no-go areas for wheelchairs, but this invention is proving there are no limitations.”
