Mobility Scooter Hire: Try Before You Buy!

Guiseley Senior Citizens Association is pleased to offer a community mobility scooter available for short-term hire.

This service is designed to help our members regain independence and test out how a scooter fits into their daily routine—whether it's a trip to the shops or a visit to a friend—before making a financial commitment.

• Initial Hire Period: The scooter is available for an initial 6-week period. Further extensions may be possible and can be discussed at the end of the term.
• Eligibility: This is a high-demand resource. We ask that it is requested by those with a genuine mobility need.
• Cost: A one-off charge of £30 is required at the start of the hire. This is a non-refundable donation that goes directly into the GSC funds to help us continue our work in the community.

To keep this service running safely for everyone, please note the following:

• User Manual: A full user manual is provided upon handover. It is a requirement that you read this in full before using the scooter.
• Liability: Please be aware that GSC does not provide insurance for the scooter or the rider. Use is entirely at the rider’s own risk.
• Care & Repairs: The scooter must be returned in the same condition it was received. The hirer is liable for the cost of any necessary repairs.
• Agreement: A simple terms and conditions form must be signed and dated at the time of handover.

If you would like to check availability or have any questions, please contact:

Before you commit to purchasing a scooter, why not test one out in your everyday life? We are now offering our community mobility scooter for hire for an initial 6-week period.

This service is for anyone who needs it, not just anyone who wants one!
