I am going on holiday, how do I hire a mobility scooter or wheel chair when I am there?
If you are staying within the UK you can search for a Shop Mobility local to where you are going. Another option would be to search for local mobility equipment providers.

You can search for local providers and shop mobility using our Scottish Disability Directory or contact us and one of our information workers can help you search.
