Hi I went to Turkey last year for 2 weeks, I rang Blf for advise and they gave me a few names to call. I hired a machine from nebulisersdirect.co.uk I paid £150 per week and had to pay a deposit of £350 which I got back. Hopefully you haven’t left it too late to hire a machine. Good luck and hope you enjoy the break x

If you need insurance give fishinsurance.co.uk a try I found them to be really good and an excellent price x

What do you use now here ?

Are your suppliers able to advise you ?

Are you able to hire a concentrator to take with you ?

Good luck, hope all works out well for you ?

I am currently going thro' and oxygen assessment programe and I am told their supplier provides all the contacts and info where to go, where to get oxygen abroad.

Why not try your respiratory nurse for a contact number or if you have try your existing UK provider. I'm told the service is good with other UK providers.

Thanks , he’s been to the oxygen clinic and they have changed his oxygen bottles for a machine which he can take abroad which is a bonus it’s much better and 9 hour battery life , so we are sorted now 😬😬
