Highland
Disabled
Ramblers now
own 9 sturdy electric scooters for the use of members on our
rambles.
We
have been extremely fortunate in receiving funding in 2008 from the Great Wilderness Challenge and in 2009
from the Highland Cross and Inverness
Common Good Fund to enable us
to renew most of our fleet of ageing scooters. We were able to buy
three TGA
Breeze 3 and four Breeze 4 scooters.
Our
sincere thanks go to both charities and to the Highland Council for
their generosity; also to City Mobility in Inverness
for procuring the scooters for us.
The
new scooters complement our existing Mini-Crosser and older Meteor.
8
scooters are available for booking on each ramble and one is used as a
spare in case of mechanical or other problems. Details on how to book
are given
to members in our regular newsletter “Rambling On”.
