Are you looking at short term, intermitant or long term hire?

If short term, or on odd occasions, is there a local shopmobility scheme?

Hi I am looking to rent for long term hire for as long as I possibly can.

If you get HRM you can lease one from £11.50/week using your allowance.

If you google mobility scooter hire there are plenty that come up.

You would probably be cheaper buying a 2nd hand one on EBay if you can afford it.

I was reading a magazine yesterday and noticed this company advertising hire of mobility scooters. Not sure if they are only for the over 60s, but here's the website: https://www.forbes-rentals.co.uk.

Charges for scooters start at £11.85 a week and there is a minimum hire period of 18 months.

£11 - £12 per week is an awful lot to pay - that's around £600 per year for the smallest model :eek:. I was expecting about half that amount.
