of manual wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs, and
mobility scooters to people with limited mobility for

of mobility aids, and donations. The service is
used by over 3,000 members annually and is very
popular with the user group. Other than the direct

standard for access and mobility for all shopping
areas.

the Shopping Centres, we hire Manual Wheelchairs

starting at €100 per week for those wishing to take
on holiday or for use at home.
