HI,For aids to help around the home then you'll need to refer yourself for a needs assessment from your local council. Start here.This wouldn't help with a mobility scooter. Have you tried searching your local area on the internet to see if anyone is selling one cheap? Gumtree is a good place to start, usually there's quite a lot on there for sale.

Hi @happyteresa, I too would recommend having a needs assessment (the link Poppy has posted above) and here is some other information that might help:
If there is anything else we can do then please do let us know.0 -
