Custom Disability Cars
People who are looking for wheelchair accessibility in their homes and cars often need to get special adaptations done, this may include ramps and specially designed baths and showers.
Constables Mobility is a company which modifies cars so that they are suitable for wheelchair users and their families. In a recent article published on their website Constables showed that they could put in adaptations in a few hours or completely rebuild a car in under a week. Cars they have available for you to have modified to your own special requirements include theCitroen Berlingo , the Peugeot Tepee and the Renault Kangoo.
When you get a modification from Constables it’s not just a case of fitting a different seat or lowering the chassis, it’s a complete rebuild which is tailored specifically to you, there is over an hour’s consultation where they measure you up and assess your needs before the rep takes himself off to get your car built.
Fuel tanks are moved, doors widened, roofs raised or floors are lowered, new seats and straps are fitted so that you will be as mobile and independent as you can be.
These days the ability to look after yourself is important, as is being able to move about without the aid of public transport, what with the most recent spending cutbacks being maded in the provision of public transport for the elderly or disabled disguised as an opportunity to provide choice and diversity. Imagine that, they’re not so much taking away a much needed disabled transport service, they are actually increasing choice and independent living to the aged and disabled by making them take private hire cabs, Dial-A-Ride, traditional bus services or stay at home. Now you might think they had all these options already notwithstanding the council funded bus service. Well that’s true, but because so many people were choosing that rather than the others they possibly weren’t allowing themselves the opportunity to try other (cheaper for the council) transport solutions.
