"My husband and I travelled to the Naidex exhibition last year in the hope of finding a lightweight folding mobility scooter as I am unable to take mine on our travels abroad by plane because the type of battery is not accepted, and this was hampering our wanderlust by having to drive everywhere. 

I have Fibromyalgia, dilated cardiomyopathy and rheumatoid arthritis so a I needed something that was comfy, portable, light and easy to use. 

I was adamant that I needed a mobility scooter and having looked and tried the scooters available, I still hadn’t found the right one for me. 

We passed the Foicare stand and watched the power chair being demonstrated and it looked just what I was looking for. But I was still looking for a scooter, but I thought I would try it anyway. 

I needn’t have worried. The easy, responsive controller. The compact and sleek design and the weight made it the perfect choice for me. I did go and look at other chairs ( by now all thoughts of a scooter had gone ! ) but came back and after a few wobbly trial runs bought one there and then. I felt safe and comfortable and in control 

Since then we have been to Spain, Holland, Belgium and France with it and everywhere people have stopped me and asked where I got it from. 

The battery comes out very easily, and the chair folds up so compactly that its easy to put into the boot of the car or take on our travels by plane and boat. 

The aftercare has been terrific and my questions have been answered very quickly. 

I still have my mobility scooter but now I have my electric chair, I can look forward to travelling to all the places I thought I would never get too."
