My wife had a fall recently and due to a fracture in her back is finding walking difficult without holding onto me. Can anyone advise where I can buy or hire a Zimmer Frame to assist her to get back to walking? Many thanks

Hi Baz38,
Sorry to hear of your wife´s accident. I don´t know of anywhere in Gran Alacant that hires walking aids, but there´s a place on the commercial centre of La Marina urbanisation, just off the N332, that sells and hires mobility equipment, including walking frames:

There´s also the charity, Help Vega Baja, that hires mobility equipment, if you want to do a price comparison:

I hope your wife´s better soon.
Kind regards,
Kim

I purchased a walking aid frame of amazon es and was delivered within days, cost 35 Euro, I heard/read afterwards that farmicias/chemist can supply through a catalog they have in-store, also a while later I was informed that some charitable organisations can supply.

Thanks Peter, that seems quite reasonable from Amazon. Reply really appreciated.
