A Step Back in Time

Allied Mobility arrived in the Midlands for our third Mobility Day of 2016, held at one of the largest open air museums in the United Kingdom.

We were delighted to host our Midlands Mobility Day at this incredibly interesting venue and despite some heavy rain in the morning we enjoyed a fantastic day!

This award-winning corner of the West Midlands is now one of the finest and largest open-air museums in the United Kingdom. With a village and charismatic residents to chat with along with trams to ride, games to play and stories to hear there really is something for everyone.

Visitors came from across England to enjoy the attraction and try our full range of wheelchair accessible vehicles. In fact demand for tickets was so high that the event was declared a sell out so apologies to anyone who didn’t manage to make it along. 

Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles

Our display included each vehicle from the extensive Allied Mobility range, all of which are available through the Motability Scheme to buy, lease or hire.

Among the vehicles on display was the eye-catching Ford Freedom™ which is based on the Ford Tourneo Connect. Freedom™ combines the stylish comfort you’d expect from Ford with innovative accessible features including a unique new EasyLift™ ramp that folds completely flat when not in use.

In addition, the Volkswagen Vista™ was subject to a lot of interest from those in attendance thanks to its ample space for able-bodied and wheelchair passengers alike.

This popular MPV provides unsurpassed ease of access for wheelchair passengers with the EasyFold™ wheelchair ramp which is light and easy to use. Vista™ also includes a wealth of wheelchair accessible features including a non-slip, lowered floor, designed for optimum access, and high quality, adjustable wheelchair restraints.

Not to be outdone the ever popular Peugeot Horizon™ showed again why it’s the UK’s most popular WAV, as visitors tried and tested the range to find their perfect car before making their decision on their next wheelchair accessible vehicle. Those who attended also had the chance to chat to our knowledgeable mobility advisors.
