Most information sheets also include a picture of the item.

Our appointment service operates Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays). Depending on your needs (or those you are seeking advice on behalf of) the appointment will be booked with either an Occupational Therapist or Registered Nurse. Dual appointments are also available. Appointments need to be booked in advance and can be arranged by contacting us directly. Group tours welcome by appointment.

Limited health professional assistance is available during this time.

The second hand register contains items of equipment offered for sale by members of the public. It may include personal care items, wheelchairs (manual and powered), scooters, chairs, walking aids, ramps, hoists, transport equipment and beds.
