There are two wheelchairs, located at our entrance, that are free to use, in different styles from The Escape range. The first design, the Transit, has smaller wheels and is ideal to be pushed, and the larger wheeled chair is perfect to be self propelled.

Mobility Your Way are based in The Lock House, the brand new building on the left as you enter our driveway.

The Lock House is their very latest showroom with existing locations including Market Harborough, Wokingham, Cambridge, Rugby, Peterborough, Kettering, Bury St Edmunds and Desborough. Mobility Your Way stock a wide range of mobility aids including mobility scooters and wheelchairs and is backed up with fantastic prices, expert knowledge and friendly service. https://www.facebook.com/MobilityYourWay

Both designs of our wheelchairs, plus many others, are available to purchase from Mobility Your Way and come in a number of sizes and colours (ours are very apt being green), they are lightweight and easy to fold for transportation.

We can ensure the best quality, maintain excellent stock levels and this often results in our ranges being bigger (offering more choice for you too) and our prices lower!

Recently, our buyers at Whilton Locks headed out to look at prices at a couple of ‘chain’ garden centres. In comparing the ‘best sellers’ like herbs, strawberries, multipurpose compost, bedding plants and alpines we were consistently better value. Bigger ticket items, such as garden furniture, we were remarkably cheaper and we offered better quality, better delivery options (most immediate and in stock) and again a far better range.

This is all great news, knowing you are getting the best deals at Whilton Locks. Blooming marvellous you could say and if you take a look at our outside displays* you will agree the colour, choice and quality IS blooming marvellous too.

Free parking, huge choice, great stock availability and so mulch more.

See you soon.
