Community support
Help us to shape a brighter future for all in Elmbridge, especially those in need, by completing our survey.
The wheelchair loan scheme enables those with limited mobility to borrow wheelchairs on a temporary basis from our centres.
To join the scheme:
You can book in advance by calling the centre to ensure the wheelchair that you need is available.
Before we loan a wheelchair, we complete a safety checklist and supply you with instructions for use.
Staff at the centre can show you how to use the wheelchair correctly if you are not familiar with how to use it.
For your own wellbeing, you will not be allowed to use the equipment if it is felt that you cannot use it safely.
Regular wheelchairs support users up to 18 stone, and we also have 2 bariatric pushing wheelchairs available for users up to 25 stone.
The bariatric wheelchairs are available from the Cobham and Walton centres.
