Just bought a Q50r Carbon from the Wigan branch. What a great experience Peter took loads of time with us to make sure we got the right power chair for my wife, he was friendly, polite and most of all very knowledgeable. He insisted that we even come back with our campervan to make sure it fitted where we wanted. Julie was also very helpful and they both made shopping with Ableworld a easy and pleasurable experience would recommend them to anyone.

I visited the Wigan store regarding a faulty scooter battery
I visited the Wigan store with my father in law due to issues with his scooter battery (we did not purchase the scooter from Ableworld). Peter who served us was very helpful and we can't thank him enough for testing the battery and sorting a new one for us which was also good value for money.

Overall experience
visited Wigan store with my mum to try out Walkers and look at Scooters. Very friendly welcome from Peter, who ok a lot of time explaining the different walkers and what things to consider. There was no hard sell, mum was able to try out various walkers and decided on what was right for her. Would certainly recommend this store. Very friendly staff.

Helpful and knowledgeable staff and wide product range
My wife and I went into the Wigan branch to look at a rollator for her.
On our first visit Julie demonstrated the models available and gave good advice. We went away to consider and returned to meet Julie and Peter. Both were extremely helpful. At no stage was there any pressure.
We went in last year to look at options for mobility and then too Julie gave us good advice.
So 5 stars all round from us.
