Would you like to look round the shops, stop for a coffee and have a sit about in the park? Is this a distant dream as you have had a recent operation, a poorly leg, iffy balance, an accident or just poor mobility?
Maybe you have a medical condition that makes you exhausted quickly and you just need a bit of physical support but don’t know which one would suit you best.
