Before you pay: what you may get free
-
Ask your council for a free needs assessment, usually by an occupational therapist. In England, if you are eligible, the council must provide aids and minor adaptations costing £1,000 or less free of charge — that covers most walking aids and grab rails. NHS — Social Care and Support Guide
-
NHS physiotherapists can often supply walking sticks and frames after an assessment. Ask your GP for a referral.
-
If you have a long-term illness or disability, you should not have to pay VAT on most mobility aids. Ask the seller for a VAT relief form before you pay.
