    o/t Help with hire of mobility aid please

    We have an elderly relative that we need to look after this weekend. He's had a couple of falls recently so just wondered if there's anywhere at short notice we can get hold of a walking aid/tri-walker or even a wheelchair? It is short notice as we've just found this out within the last hour.

    Based at my sons currently here in N Yorkshire area

    thanks in advance

    Look up mobility shops in the area you are staying, then phone em to see if they do a rental.

    Thanks ELK - he's had a couple of falls but wasn't very forthcoming about them so it's become very last minute as he'll be with us tomorrow for a while

    Not got time to check but I think Red Cross charity shops sell wheel chairs if not them Might be another charity. Sorry can’t remember exactly im sure someone has mentioned this to me before.

    Shame this wasn't last week. My latest property was full of disabled equipment. All were sent to the daughter of the seller to dispose of as she wished. Tbh I've got a feeling they were skipped ☹️
