hi susie, there are quite a few mobility centres that hire out for a day to however much time you need one, they have a wideish choice and prices vary. i found the number on the internet but in the thompson local or yellow pages have numbers. the only thing to remeber is when there are public holiday ie jubilee, devon/cornwall show the demand is high so booking early is a must

Hi poppy. When I got my DLA the first thing I did was go on EBAY and bought a scooter cost less than 140 quid!!! Best buy I've ever made, before I got it I was virtually house bound. Now I can go shopping, car boots, something that I could not do for a long time.

Enjoy your freedom this week.
