Nordic scooter that’s so adaptable

AFTER an accident, illness or as we age, the daily tasks that we all take for granted can become that little bit harder. Finding the right mobility scooter can really open up possibilities, making shopping, visits and other outings a lot more manageable. There are plenty of options, so it can be best to arrange a home visit from a few leading suppliers, who can talk you though them and help you make the right decision based on your unique needs. Most will be happy to give you a full demonstration and you might even be able to trial the scooter if you wish, to ensure it suits you well. Make sure there are guarantees and full after-sales support for peace of mind. Choose from lightweight scooters that are easy to take around in the boot of the car, mid-range models that might be ideal in your local area — and strong, comfortable types (pictured right) built for rugged Nordic conditions. The last is very adaptable, as you can always get a larger seat and a different accelerator control, for example, as your needs change over time due to conditions such as arthritis, muscular atrophy, MS and back pain. So there is no need for new investment. Independence and freedom are precious to us all. With an electric scooter, you can not only regain that sense of freedom, but also the ability to come and go as you please.
