Ability Plus Sittingbourne was a revelation. Lee was absolutely amazing. His knowledge was thorough, he was kind and could not do enough. I bought my first wheelchair, which was quite traumatic accepting I needed one, but Lee made it a great experience, calming my anxiety. Will be buying more from the Sittingbourne store! Highly recommend the store and Lee!

We needed a stair lift for the mother in law urgently, these were absolutely outstanding from the first phone call, kept us updated on the manufacturing to the date for fitting, the fitter rang prior to fitting and once fitted, he is also coming out again to check that it is all ok for her when she is out of hospital as she got taken in a few days after order being placed and make any necessary alterations.
