What was your concern with this review?
The design is perfect, I think, most importantly because it allows me to walk in an upright posture, thus easing lower back & shoulder pain. Its very sturdy construction has helped my balance a lot, & I feel much more secure when out walking, & able to venture onto field & woodland trails safely. Probably the greatest tribute to the way it has encouraged me to get mobile again is that I participated in a sponsored walk throughout the month of September. The challenge was to walk 75 miles in a month: I achieved nearly 90 & raised nearly £200 for my charity. That is something I haven't felt confident or capable of doing for many years.
I have also ventured into Liverpool on my own for the first time in several years. Our local buses can be lowered for easy disabled access, but trains are rather more difficult. However, I have found the main structural bar between the front & back wheels to be a secure place to hold & lift the trolley off safely, without any fear of losing balance.
Your prompt responses to my queries have been greatly appreciated, particularly the set of photos you sent to enable my non-DIY husband to fit the drinks bottle holder!
You will be interested that I met a lady in Southport who bought a Veloped from you many years ago and is extremely satisfied with it. She said she had met you, & was full of praise for your kindness and helpfulness. In fact, I have since discovered that she volunteers at a local nature reserve, which we visit regularly!
I’m attaching 2 photos of me wearing my charity t shirt in case they may be useful.
