There’s nothing that entices the nation out of their homes more than a good bit of sunshine! Despite the happier, sunnier days, summer can make travelling as a wheelchair user that bit harder as public transport becomes hot and crowded with people flocking to parks, beaches and outdoor attractions to make the most of the good weather.
So why not take the stress (and sweat!) out of summer travel with a wheelchair accessible vehicle (WAV) hire? Whether it’s a few day trips, a short stay away or a longer road trip adventure, enjoy the freedom of travelling at your own rhythm from the comfort of your wheelchair or powerchair.
With a wide selection of modern WAVs available to hire, our friendly mobility advisors are on hand to help find the perfect accessible vehicle for you and your summer plans.
Every WAV hire includes:
- Insurance for up to three drivers
- UK-wide home delivery or in person collection
- Airport collection and drop off*
- Full vehicle demonstration
- Breakdown cover
- High-spec vehicles
Enjoy More of Summer, Together
A wheelchair accessible vehicle hire helped wheelchair user, Dave, enjoy everything a summer break should be about – family, fresh air, days out and making new memories. Here’s what his sister Miranda had to say about their WAV hire experience:
“We visited the seaside and we went to a lovely restaurant in Wimborne where Dave sat in the beautiful sunshine listening to music near the square. He enjoyed coming to our house to see the children and dogs, plus sandwiches and cake. The WAV has opened up a new world for him. A huge thank you to all the Allied Mobility Hire team who arranged this for us, you are all fantastic with a wonderful service!”
