There’s so much to do in London!! It would be hard to narrow it down to what can fit into your trip. I definitely recommend going to Westminster Abbey and Tower of London. Other than that, it depends what you’re interested in. The active leisure you can find using London’s escape rooms platform, it’s really useful. Also, I suggest looking on http://www.visitlondon.com or search on the tripadvisor forums for recommendations about what to do.
Good luck. I’m sure you’ll have a great time whatever you decide to do.
It has been ages since I have been, so, I suggest you read this article by Cory Lee – one of the most famous accessible travel writers.
Here are his thoughts on accessibility in London:

https://www.visitlondon.com/traveller-information/essential-information/accessible-londonI wonder if the escape rooms mentioned by @NinaMorel are wheelchair accessible?
As a kid, I think the Tower of London was my favourite 🙂
