High Wycombe Shopmobility
Shopmobility in High Wycombe is a small and friendly local charity. We offer free daily hire of mobility scooters, manual and powered wheelchairs for those with limited mobility to use in the town centre. We also hire manual wheelchairs overnight or longer term for a small charge. Our team of dedicated staff and volunteers are here 7 days a week to help you visit the town and regain your independence.
Our equipment and our service is really easy to use. We welcome your custom, support and donations to help maintain our much valued service.
How does it work?
Shopmobility is a service that helps all people who consider themselves to have mobility problems (whether through disability, illness or injury) to continue to get around the town centre independently, with freedom, confidence and dignity.
