Don't know if this is any use to you , but I would contact my local mobility centre for advice on mobility help, like cars, scooters. ASthma UK has a lot of suggestions as to where you can get potable concentrators from. You can access them on line at asthmauk.co.uk. Most of the disability sites have this sort of info too, I just type in disability to the search bar then you can choose any of the suppliers that pop up.Good luck and best wishes with maintaining your mobility to the best of your ability.

Motability could give advice, then you could probably buy cheaper elsewhere. Good luck in finding what you need.

Hi gerry1950 i'm on oxygen 24/7 and both my home concentraror and my mobile concentrator were supplied by the N.H.S. Do you have a specialist nurse visit you if you do speak with her or your consultant.Are you recieving D.L.A or P.I.P if you are ask about motability vehicles and look at websites like Careco.co.uk for scooters.Ihope this has been some help for you all the best.

Hi Gerry 1950. I have recently gone down this route. I wanted something light enough for my old OH to be able to take in and out of the boot of our saloon car. We trawled the internet for a couple of weeks and decided on a TravelScoot. Although this is American made, they also have a place in Germany. They accepted our payment and delivered within a week. I've had it now for about three weeks and am delighted (as are the grandchildren!). I use liquid oxygen and the cylinder sits comfortably in the small basket on the front. Sorry but I don't know much about portable concentrators so I don't know if it would fit in anywhere. Anyway it might be worth a look.

Good luck and hope it all works out well.
