Get back to doing what you love

-

WHETHER travelling, shopping, gardening or enjoying days out, a lightweigh­t, folding electric wheelchair won’t let you down.

The best ones are modern and are a joy to use, with easy controls — and they will fit in most car boots when folded.

Take the new Joy Rider. The heaviest part weighs just 12kg without the battery and detachable wheels, making it easier to transport and carry.

So it’s a versatile day tripper, as well as being suitable for cruises.

Spring Chicken founder Anna James says: ‘My father, who has Parkinson’s, took it on a cruise, using it to move around more freely, sit in the restaurant and then make it to the theatre at the other end of the ship in time for the show.

‘Storage was also very simple as it folds flat.’

You can easily try one for yourself, as Spring Chicken does free home demonstrat­ions and has won a Feefo Platinum service award again this year.

The good-looking chair is joystick-controlled and can be used both indoors and outdoors due to its excellent turning circle — providing a great way to get back to doing the things you love.
