Electric motorscooter & oxygen carrier
This thirteen-year old young lady has severe heart and lung problems and requires constant access to oxygen. Pulling a trolley with 10kg cylinder of gas was very tiring, and restricted her from joining in with her peer group.
A metal basket, to carry the oxygen bottle, was made and fitted to electric microscooter. The basket was also fitted with stabilizers to give added confidence to the rider. The client is now able ‘to hang out’ with her peer group. She can ride into town by herself and do whatever 13-year olds do. Both she and her parents are very happy with her new found freedom and independence.
