wheelchair hire

Post by MikeK »

My wife has hurt her back and can't walk more than a few steps. Anyone know where I can borrow or hire a wheelchair as.a.p.?

Hello Mike

So sorry to hear about your wife's misfortune. I've got a few enquiries out with contacts, but so far everyone is drawing a blank. Being a weekend hasn't helped, but hopefully today being Monday might help. I assume the hotel are also making representations on your behalf? If not, please name and shame them here. Please also update us if you managed to find a wheelchair so that I can stop the hunt, so to speak.

Hi Mike, Rocky of Rocky Rentals (listed on here under car rentals or weblink is http://www.rockyrentalstobago.com/) offers wheelchair hire to clients - if you tell him you found him c/o Glyn from England, or Steve of Mytobago, he is such a nice chap I am sure he might rent you one independently of a car hire, especially if you give him a plug afterwards! http://www.rockyrentalstobago.com/

Many thanks, I've emailed Rocky.

Steve, Turtle Beach have loaned us a wheelchair for the duration of our stay so no complaints there, but we're off up to Charlotteville next Sunday for a week self-catering.

Thanks for your help,guys, and if any other sources occur to you please let me know, either here or on my Tobago phone which is 782 9603
