We're working with Medequip to enable residents to return community equipment they no longer need. You can help someone locally by recycling your equipment today.
What you can return
You can return any of the following medical equipment that you no longer use:
- wheeled adjustable frames
- perching stools
- raised toilet seats
- pressure cushions
- toilet frames
- trolleys
- adjustable walking sticks
- adult crutches
- chair raisers
- commodes
- grab rails.
Medequip will also accept any equipment that is broken. All returned equipment will be thoroughly checked, cleaned and repaired if needed. We will then send out each item to patients who need the equipment so that it can be re-used.
This recycling initiative helps residents to recycle their equipment and help someone locally.
