Information - Disability Advice

Lyneham Village Online has introduced a new section aiming to provide as much information as possible to help people with disabilities, learning difficulties and information for their carers and families. Providing details of the benefits available, helplines, advise centres, equipment and service providers etc.

In addition there are many Charities and Organisations that can be of assistance to people that are disabled, who may possibly be able to help in so many different ways.

If you require help and your particular problem is not listed or if you have any ideas or comments which will improve our site, please fill in the feedback form on our site and we will endeavour to find help for you as soon as possible.

Shopmobility

The Shopmobility service operates a fleet of manual and electrically powered wheelchairs and scooters for use by anyone with mobility problems. Once a member, you just book the machine for when you need it. Ideal for Swindon City Centre. If, after an initial free trial, you wish to join, then the registration fee is only £10 per year! .

It's Simple - If you have never used a machine before rest assured ours are simple to operate. They are designed for use on pavements and will travel at walking pace driven by easy to use controls. For those of you unfamiliar with this kind of equipment training will be provided.

Your nearest shopmobility scheme can be found at Swindon at the Wyvern Multistorey carpark. Opening Hours Monday - Saturday 9.00am - 4.30pm. Please phone and book in advance. Thamesdown Dial-A-Ride services can be used to take you from you home to the Shopmobility Unit. Alternatively you can arrange to be met at a town centre bus stop by a volunteer.
