GLOUCESTERSHIRE MOBILITY

COMMUNITY INTEREST COMPANY

Gloucestershire Mobility Community Interest Company is based in Quedgeley.  They are a not for profit organisation and all monies are fed back into the company to ensure it can continue its community work within Gloucestershire.

They work with disabled people who are looking to gain experience in the workplace where they provide work placements so that those attending can experience a range of work related skills including workshop, retail and administration. The project is supported by Gloucester County Council.

 They operate a mobility equipment recycling project where they welcome donated mobility equipment in any condition, and can collect from any location in Gloucestershire. They offer sales, servicing and repairs to most types of mobility equipment including new and used scooters, stair lifts, manual and power chairs, rise and recline seating, patient lifting hoists and stand aids.

They have recently been awarded the contract to service and repair the equipment for Gloucester Shopmobility, and are working closely with Gloucester Shopmobility to increase the range of equipment and services it provides.

They can provide mobility equipment training on a one to one basis or for groups who may wish to improve their skills in operating Mobility scooters and power chairs safely or for those who are considering purchasing their first scooter and want to experience it before they decide. They offer free no obligation home visits to those who are unable to visit their premises and provide free advice and information.

The unit is currently open by appointment only Monday to Saturday.

For further details, to donate equipment or to book an appointment you can contact them on 01452 341672 or 07811 765257 email: glosmob@gmail
