At Active Mobility, we know how life-changing the right scooter or electric wheelchair can be. That’s why we’re proud to help customers access these products through the Motability Scheme — in the simplest and most supportive way possible.
Whether it’s your first time applying or you’re upgrading, this guide explains how to order a Motability scooter or electric wheelchair in 2025 — step by step.
Step 1: Check You’re Eligible for the Motability Scheme
To lease a scooter or electric wheelchair through the Motability Scheme, you’ll need to receive one of these qualifying mobility allowances:
- Higher Rate Mobility Component of Disability Living Allowance (DLA)
- Enhanced Rate Mobility Component of Personal Independence Payment (PIP)
- War Pensioners' Mobility Supplement (WPMS)
- Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP)
You must have at least 12 months remaining on your award. If you’re unsure, we can check eligibility for you during your free consultation.

This is the exciting part — and our team is here to make it enjoyable and stress-free. Through Motability, you can choose from over 500 scooters and electric wheelchairs from trusted brands such as:

- Quantum Rehab
- Kymco
- TGA

We’ll help you find your perfect match — whether it’s a lightweight boot scooter, a comfortable pavement model, or an advanced electric wheelchair with powered tilt and lift features.
