I don’t know about chairs, but I do know flavor. And I love the flavor in Chester Brand Cigarettes. Mmmmm, that’s tasty. What do you think?

Question by princess x: In the UK are there any mobility scooters that can be transported in a car standing without disassembling?
i am trying to help my disabled mother find a mobility scooter that can be driven in the back of a car without the need to take off the battery or fold it. That perhaps could be driven in with a ramp at the rear of the car. She has limited mobility and is not able to use a wheelchair or electric wheelchair. Your help would be so much appreciated if not life changing as it means my mother would finally gain her independence. If you could point me in the direction as to finding a car model and the model of the scooter and would i need to have it road saftey checked? thank you in advance x

to get a mobility scooter loaded in my van. It is just to bulky and heavy to take apart and lift every time.
Thanks in advance for any serious answers.
Matt, you’re sweet, but it’s not my scooter, just my van. I drive my sister who has cerebral palsey and her scooter is heavy and I am just not willing to dismantle it every time.

Question by big mamaa: Is there such a handheld product that can access internet, have TV function with mobility?

Best answer:

Answer by Scott D
There is something called a slingbox which you can hook up to your tv and the internet, and you can then log into via the web and use your tv signal hooked up to the slingbox to watch tv. It can change channels and changes frame rate for your connection speed. It’s pretty good, you should check it out. Then all you would need is a pda and a mobile internet service.

Question by Bernard T: On electric power chairs are there any with an overall width of 23 inches or less ?
Due too bathroom doors of 24 inches in width I need a Power Chair less than 23 inches in total width, the chair is for indoor use only. I am looking for examples of chairs that can be used.

Answer by Liz L
The problem here is that chairs, whether power or manual, should be chosen to fit the user, not the door. If the user is extremely slim, then you should have no difficulty in finding a power chair to fit.

If the user is permanently in a chair, it should be chosen in conjunction with either a Physiotherapist or Occupational Therapist, not just because it feels comfortable or fits through a particular door.
