Hands Down Success

Allied Mobility’s second event of 2017 was held in glorious sunshine at Uttoxeter Racecourse in Staffordshire and saw over 440 people come out to enjoy a fantastic day at the races.

The event, which also played host to various local mobility stores and disability charities, provided an opportunity for seasoned racing fans and newcomers alike to visit one of the leading national hunt tracks in the midlands.

Everyone a Winner

Uttoxeter Racecourse is set in 110 acres of picturesque countryside and proved to be a perfect backdrop to the event as attendees could enjoy the excitement of horse racing while finding out more about wheelchair accessible vehicles.

Visitors came from all over the country to attend and as the day went on, there were plenty of smiling faces especially amongst those who were successful when taking on the bookies!

Meet the Family

Allied Mobility’s entire family of wheelchair accessible vehicles were on display including the UK’s favourite wheelchair accessible vehicle (WAV) – the Peugeot Horizon™. As the most popular WAV on the Motability scheme, Horizon™ is ideal for those looking for a vehicle which is stylish, safe and offers optimum accessibility.

Visitors were also impressed by the popular Volkswagen Vista™. Unlike many other wheelchair accessible vehicles, Vista™ retains Volkswagen’s original rear seating providing ample space for driver, wheelchair passenger and up to four seated passengers.

In addition, both the Ford Freedom™ and Independence™ received plenty of interest. The Freedom™ combines ultra-modern comfort and style with the unique EasyGlide™ access ramp while Independence™ is perfect for larger families or small groups requiring wheelchair accessible transport.

Across the Board

With so much on display, there was plenty for people of all ages to enjoy including the opportunity to find out more about the products and services on offer from partners including Oak Tree Mobility, Elite Mobility, Ambucare, People’s Parking, Elap, Brig-Ayd, AM Racing and Chris from Motability was on hand to assist with any queries about the Motability Car Scheme.

The team at Uttoxeter Racecourse were extremely friendly and helpful to both Allied Mobility and the hundreds of visitors in attendance on the day.
