Hi new scooter come today 🙂 very 😁 happy with it 🥺 but my front door at very sheltered housing are very narrow , not made for wheelchair access the OT hoping that she can get my door widen, so my new equipment won't catch the doors and rip the foam , it's going to make mt life little restricted as I no longer have the electric chair , but I bought one of them robot hoovers so hopefully that'll help with the housework never had one before so I'm hoping they work I hope everybody is well and staying clear the COVID had clerk of works come over and he putting guards at the corners of the walls so that I can't hit the walls anymore cos I'm damaging the sides of the walls new fire doors in. Moved in to very sheltered housing and it's flats are not built for scooters or wheelchairs access so alterations are being done which are going to take time but I'm pleased at the undertaking them at some point

Hi @Ashvinney,
It's so great to get an update on this, especially one that's so positive! I'm really happy that you're so pleased with the new scooter and are on the right track to get accommodations, too. An understanding OT can sometimes make all the difference with these things, I find. You deserve it0
