North Devon Shopmobility

North Devon Shopmobility commenced operation in June 1997. It offers the use of scooters, manual and powered wheelchairs to those with mobility problems who wish to access Barnstaple shops and for other town centre facilities.

There is a £10 annual membership fee (or £5 temporary membership) and we will require a £4 deposit which will be kept as a donation unless you specifically request the money back. If you are a tax payer and have not already signed a Gift Aid form please asks one of the team for info.

New clients are given a quick training session, by one of the volunteers or a member of staff, on how to use the scooter or wheelchair safely within the accessible town centre. Two forms of identification with name and address on are needed when first registering.

Equipment can be booked in advance by calling the co ordinator on 01271 328866, Monday to Friday 9.15 am to 4.00 pm.

Limited car parking facilities are available adjacent to the
centre and a permit will be issued when you arrive.

The Shopmobility Centre now sells a range of Living
and Mobility Aids.

Profits from this NEW RETAIL venture
will be ploughed back into the Shopmobility and Ring
& Ride services running costs.
