We've launched a walking aid reuse service ❤️♻️. Support this project and help others walk again! 🥰 Return mobility aids to the Outpatient Physiotherapy department, Leighton Hospital, 8am-4pm, Monday-Friday. Accepted items include:
✅ Wheeled walking frames
✅ Elbow crutches
✅ Walking sticks
✅ Gutter frames
Returned equipment is assessed and - if suitable - cleaned, refurbished and then safely reused by patients who need it most.
