Default Lathe set up for handicapped

A member of our local club has a problem with his legs that make it
difficult for him to steady hinself while standing. He's asked if some
of the members could come up with a way to mount a lathe such that it
could be approached and used from a wheelchair. Seems to me that
somewhere I've seen articles on this, but a quick search did not find
them. If there's anyone who has knowledge about/experience with this
type of modification, I'd sure appreciate any leads or advice
