The tyre on the small front wheels of our wheelchair have split so we cannot use. Have been trying to find someone/firm to repair this. Most of the mobility shops seem to sell scooters rather than chairs. It is a non NHS chair, old but in otherwise reasonable condition. It is an 'emergency use' chair and has been used by family members with reduced outdoor mobility. It also folds up well to put into boot of car.

At the worse possible scenario will have to purchase a new one but will have to try out to ensure it fits in boot.

Have found one place in Hertfordshire who do repairs but they require over ?70 just to visit without labour and parts charges.

Have borrowed a wheelchair for a few days but it is not 'car friendly'.

  Yes, we have a Casio CT-S100 we no longer need, except I dont think we have the headphones any more. It has a USB connection. £50? https://www.argos.co.uk/product/7333639

  Thank you! She is both spayed and microchipped, and reported missing on Petlog and with the vets. She normally never goes out the front, certainly for never more than 10-15 minutes, so this is definitely new territory for her. There is lots of dense foliage across the road so there are plenty of places she could be hiding if she is spooked, so we are hoping she will come back when she is calm. The weather isn't helping, she never goes out in the rain. Thank you again!

  Hi, Have you been letting her out the front door onto the street or would this be a first & therefore unfamiliar with the area? Does she respond to a name & is she spayed & microchipped? Our team carry scanners on our daily routes & will of course be looking our for her. I hope you are reunited with her soon. If not already, notify your street & surrounding streets (find out if they have Whatsapp groups) Dox will print & deliver free missing posters https://www.doxdirect.com/help/free-missing-pet-posters/ Call her at dusk & dawn when street & foot traffic is at its lowest.
