The Wheelchair Scheme

A fulfilling and rewarding lifestyle can be dependent on something as simple as having choices.

Getting a powered wheelchair or scooter from Bristol's Mobility Centre gives you the freedom to choose.

Whether a simple change of scenery, some fresh air, seeing friends, an afternoon at bingo, or a trip to the shops, being able to choose what to do and when to do it, can make a real difference.

Through Bristol's Mobility Centre, you may be able to find a mobility solution. With an extensive range of scooters and powered wheelchairs available to suit all needs, being stuck indoors could be a thing of the past.

Choosing Your Product

Bristol's Mobility Centre offers an extensive range of scooters and powered wheelchairs for all needs. Choosing the product that best suits you can be daunting but we can help you every step of the way.

The first thing to consider is whether a scooter or powered wheelchair is the right option for your mobility needs. The information below will give you a good guide, and we are here to advise you further as part of an overall assessment.

A scooter may be suitable for you if:

* You have reasonable sitting balance
* You can transfer from a sitting to standing position independently
* You can drive the scooter independent of any help
* You possess sufficient shoulder and arm strength and movement to operate a handle bar style control
* You possess sufficient vision, perception and hearing to operate the scooter safely.

A powered wheelchair may be suitable for you if:

* You need to be hoisted into your product
* You may damage your shoulders and arms by using a handle bar style control unit

Or you require any of the following:

* Dual controls (where someone else is required to help control your powered wheelchair)
* Any form of leg rest or support
* Joystick style controls

We can arrange to visit your home at a convenient time to explain what is available to you in detail. You will have the opportunity to ask all the questions you need to about payment options and the products that are available.

The specialist will ask you some questions to help understand which scooter or powered wheelchair will best suit your needs. You will have the opportunity to test a range of products which will be brought to your assessment.

You will then be given advice for the best solution for your needs.
