Hi

Useful information

As you are not allowed to take NHS equipment outside of the U.K.

You may have to hire a portable oxygen concentrater.

Talk to your supplier, they may have reciprocal arrangements with companies in those countries.

We will be going to Blackpool and staying in a caravan my daughter has just bought I phoned my oxy suppliers and it has been arranged that a driver will deliver a concentrator , spare emergency tank and mobile supplies, as at home. It will be all set up for me when we get there Friday. The company that supplies me is Air Liquide. There is no charge involved. Best to phone your supplier to arrange having cleared it with the hotel or whoever you plan to stay with. Joyce.

I have just come home after spending one week at Lourdes, South of France.

I took a portable concentrator with me but had to arrange with the air line. Make sure it's fully charged, I had to recharge ON the plane didn't go down very well.......

By the way I didn't get a cure..🙁 But enjoyed the freedom

Wishing you wellxxx
