Tokyo resident Yusuke Terada, who has trouble walking due to cerebral palsy, recently launched a project called Helpush, where he travels throughout Japan with the assistance of strangers who help push his wheelchair.

More than 200 people have helped him out since he started the project in April with the slogan: "People who push my wheelchair are the (project) leaders."

Terada, a 27-year-old office worker, launched the project with his university classmates in the hope of creating "a society where people readily help one another."
