Dear Active Mobility customers

We are currently undergoing some tough, challenging times and while living with disability is not easy for many people it is understandably even more difficult with the COVID-19 going around. As a disability supply company we exist to help those that live with these disabilities to remain mobile as well as maintaining and even improving their independence. Even now we are still committed to doing this duty to our customers.

Wheelchairs are helpful equipment that allows those living with disabilities, or are otherwise not as mobile as others, to go from point A to point B. However for those that live with severe disabilities, there is always the potential of falling or sliding off and that can be frustrating and distressing for both carers and users.
