It is advisable to get equipment insurance so that both your equipment and you are protected.
If you have a powered wheelchair or scooter, it is important to consider two types of insurance:
- Third party insurance, in case you have an accident and injure someone else or damage property.
- Insurance against the theft of, or damage to, your powered scooter/wheelchair.
