Booked a wheelchair from British Airways assistance, what will it be like?

I have asked for a wheelchair to be available at Terminal 5 from British Airways to assist me.

What will the wheelchair be like?

A motorised one?

Will my wife be able to push it or do we need a porter?

Update:

Thanks everyone, doing it Tuesday, let you know what happens.

    It will be pushed by a member of British Airways' staff

    It will NOT be motorized. they will have a staff member meet you at the plane door with a wheelchair and that person will push you to wherever you need to go in the airport....to pick up luggage, go through customs and immigration if necessary, and to exit the airport.

    Booking a wheelchair gives you a porter as well.
