As part of Falls Awareness Week we are thrilled to be doing a Walking or Daily Living Aid Amnesty.

Perhaps you broke your leg a few years ago and needed crutches for a short while but they’re now cluttering up the garage. Or maybe you have a trolley that you no longer use to walk with and has ended up becoming a plant pot stand or bookcase?

Whatever NHS or council provided walking / daily living aid it is that you no longer need, we would love to have it back. 🙂 That way we can get it refurbished and then issued out to those who now need it, plus it frees up a bit of valuable space in your home!

Head along to any of the East Lothian Council recycling centres between 15th-21st September to drop them off and then we’ll do the rest.

Check out https://www.eastlothian.gov.uk/directory/10061/recycling_centres for details of the recycling centre locations and opening hours.
