British Red Cross Mobility Aids Service: Wheelchair hire
What the mobility aids service team can do to support individuals
The British Red Cross Mobility Aids Service has adopted a new model that delivers wheelchairs directly to you, and it now covers most of the UK (excluding the Hampshire, Norfolk & Waveney, and Northern Ireland, where local Mobility Aid Services are in place). This model allows us to reach more areas of the UK, including reintroducing our service to Scotland.
Prices (2025)
• Wheelchair hire per week £22.00 (including any attachments leg elevators or cushions)
• Delivery/Collection £25.00 (£12.50 each way, to be paid at the same time as the first week hire)
