Pumping up car tyres.

[Pugwash]

I have a friend who has partial hearing who finds it difficult to pump up her car tyres as she cannot hear the bleep of the air pressure machine. Also due to arthritis finds it difficult at times to bend down.

She usually has to go out with her husband who calls out when the correct pressure is reached. Hubby is now getting more housebound and cannot be relied upon. She was informed when having new tyres fitted by the tyre place in Barry Road, that she could always go to them for pumping. Since they have gone - not sure where to go

Ideas please.

Does the car tyre place near ED station still open and would they pump tyres?

The tyre place by East Dulwich station are very helpful with this kind of thing they have helped me many a time.

My friend had to go up Knights Hill today and noticed the garage by the traffic lights had the old fashioned air pumps, so on her way back she popped in there. Only problem as that she ended up with 2 40p tokens as time was not sufficient for the 4 wheels. Does not really want to go that far each time. Will tell her about Grove Vale - do they charge?
