Hi all,
I have a mobility scooter which I store away from the path under a rain cover . My housing association refused a mobility scooter shed and I am waiting to hear back if I can keep the scooter . It’s in dead space which doesn’t get used . I have FND and my scooter is essential as my legs don’t work some days . I was also planning on trying to get back to work with the scooter so even more essential .The battery is removable so it’s not in the way . Does any one have any advice .

Hello @StephieK40
Welcome to the communityI did some research and found this page on the Motability Right website about all the pros to having a storage shed. And why a cover is only a temporary solution. It may be useful to share these points and restart a conversation with your housing association. Citizen's Advice could also be helpful to reach out to about restarting this conversation.
