Common questions

What is a gopher?

A brand name that has become the general Australian word for a small mobility scooter. We assess all of them.

What if a scooter does not suit me?

We will say so. A powered wheelchair or a change to transport is sometimes the better answer, and it is cheaper to find out first.
