Mobility Scooters

passlady

Hi I'm looking some advice about buying one of these for my 85 year old father. He is about 5 10 and about 16 stones.
Anyone know of a good place to deal with?
Should I get in touch with my local social services?

There is a place in Banbridge called ODEL MOBILITY, it's on Dromore Street, just beside the traffic lights. It seems to sell lots of mobility related stuff and mobility scooters. Never been in it so can't say whether it's good or not; just seem to sit in traffic outside it!
Maybe wortha try

Thank you for the replies. I have enquired about a scooter from Fairprice and Odells. Thanks for all the advice.

Lisclare are very good, but be aware the scooters need maintenance and upkeep can be expensive

You may find this usefull. N.Ireland rambles where scooters are free for the disabled. You have to apply for a scooter licence
