Mobility scooter advice


Mobility scooters provide many people with the freedom to live the life they want.

Our occupational therapists will give you all the advice and information you need, as well as assessing which mobility scooter might best suit your needs.

We’ll put you at ease during your assessment, which will include:

  • understanding of your current mobility
  • current medical history and eyesight
  • height, weight and seated measurements
  • understanding your seating and comfort requirements
  • where the equipment will be used
  • how far you would like to travel
  • how the equipment will be transported
  • understanding your ability to self-propel or drive equipment
  • will you be assisted? Understanding your carers’ needs
  • how you will access or fund equipment
  • an equipment trial
