Hi @Peter12345 Welcome on board great to have you here. You have brought up a very interesting subject and I would be interested to know the outcome as I am sure other members would too. As I am sure not many of us are aware of the tax situation on disability aids.

Please keep us updated

Disabled people do not have to pay VAT when they buy equipment that has been designed solely for disabled people, or on the adaptation of equipment so they can use it. ... Goods and services on which you do not have to pay VAT are often referred to as 'zero-rated' or 'eligible for VAT relief'.

I think the word that might be a stumbling block is 'solely'
I will do more digging. 
Healthy and Happy vibes to all.
