Walker loader
A lady with severe back problems is able to drive but cannot go out alone because she cannot load her walker into her car.
Fitting a system of cords and pulleys to her car without the need to make major modifications to the vehicle meant that the client could load the walker into the car after use. As the client starts to raise the walker it tips over the sill of the car boot into the car. The pulley system accommodates the client’s lack of physical strength whilst being also light and portable.
The client is able to use her car without having to be accompanied.

Any information you can give us would be great. We’ve been trying to make it where I can get my rollator in my SUV by myself so my independence can carry on. Thank you.

Hi, I don’t know if I’ve contacted you before (I’ve contacted so many organisations with no results). I’m desperate for a rollator loader or carrier so I can at least get some sort of independence back. I don’t have the ability to lift the rollator in and out of the car the usual way. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks…. Phil.

I love this. My mom also has severe back problems and has lost her independence just because she can’t load and unload her rollator from her car. I too would like to see your instructions, please.

Is it possible to get instructions for how to set up a system similar to this? I am in the U.S. and my mom has stopped going out because she can’t load her rollator into the car. My father and I are both very handy.
