What is Shopmobility?

Shopmobility is a scheme offering the free loan of manual and powered wheelchairs, or electric scooters. Staff are available to welcome you on your arrival and to help you in making your choice of vehicle.

Anyone with limited mobility whether temporary or permanent can use the scheme. You do not need to be registered disabled.

You will receive instructions on how to operate the vehicle safely before being registered as a member. Membership is free.

Please book in advance to ensure that a vehicle is available. Subject to volunteers being available, people with sensory or mobility impairment can also be escorted.

Where is Shopmobility?

The service can be used in and around High Wycombe town centre. On approaching High Wycombe town centre look for the Shopmobility road signs directing you to the Eden shopping multi-storey car park.

Most local taxi operators registered with Wycombe District Council are able to bring you directly to the Shopmobility office.

If you live in the Wycombe district, and are aged 60 or over, or disabled, you can have a free bus pass which entitles you to free travel across England. Find out about bus passes and tokens.
