Living with osteoporosis can be challenging and it can quickly reduce your mobility. It can also lead to an increase in risk of falling. Fortunately, there are now many mobility aids that help improve comfort, safety and independence for those with the condition.
CareCo is not part of the Motability scheme. The UK Motability scheme is a government-backed initiative designed to help people with disabilities gain access to mobility aids and vehicles, enhancing their independence and quality of life.
The Maximus delivers the very latest mobility scooter technology in a sleek design and with comfortable features, but can still be folded and carried in the boot of a small car. It offers complete independence and freedom to those living with a range of mobility challenges.
One of the most common questions customers ask about mobility scooters is whether or not they can cope with steep hills. All scooters differ, so it is never possible to give a standard reply.

The two most important joints to keep mobile and strong are the knees and ankles, as these support your whole body and are vital for walking mobility. As soon as these weaken, we tend to reduce activity levels dramatically, and this creates a downward spiral of reduced mobility.
Daily living aids make the world of difference to an individual’s day to day life, and can be the crucial factor when it comes to living independently, without being reliant on the assistance of others.
A good armchair is one of life's little luxuries, and while all our chairs are made with comfort in mind, we know that everybody has a different opinion of what makes the perfect armchair.
We all have a favourite chair, somewhere we can sit and feel both physically and mentally relaxed, whether it is to chat with family, to read a book or perhaps to settle in front of the TV and let our eyes drift closed for a few minutes. However, if you have limited mobility, the act of settling into or getting up from your seat can be a real challenge.
when it comes to buying a mobility scooter, you can buy a brand new one, complete with warranty for as little as £500. It means there is not the demand for used ones as there is for second hand cars. On the other hand, that lack of demand means there are bargains to be had out there. The question is, are they worth it?
We have the cheapest entry level mobility scooters on the market and with a growing selection of high-end scooters available, people often forget that we started out as the discount mobility experts. So let's look at our cheap mobility scooters in each category.
