A wheelchair restraint, such as may be used with a vehicle, comprises a housing having a first braking surface (7, figure 2), a spool 1 rotatably mounted in the housing 20 and a windable member 12 being capable of being wound onto the spool as the spool rotates in the housing. A free end of the windable member is connected to an attachment means 13 for attaching the windable member to a wheelchair. A brake member (18, figure 4) is pivotally mounted in the housing and includes at least one roller (3, figure 3) over which the windable member passes and a second braking surface (4, figure 4). When tension is applied to the windable member a torque is exerted which pivots the brake member such that the windable member is trapped between the first and second braking surfaces, so as to brake the windable member.
