Mobility Scooters
Small portable scooters – smaller scooters are designed to fold or disassemble so they can be put in a car boot. They are great for people who like the convenience of a scooter in shopping centres or parks. There are some more suitable for indoor and outdoor use on smooth surfaces such as pathways.
Lightweight mobility scooters – Friendly Society Pharmacy supplies the Solax Genie Plus lightweight electric mobility scooter which is one of the most innovative folding scooters available. The automatic folding mechanism means it folds up at the touch of a button. Weighing just over 24 kilograms, it’s one of the lightest, most versatile and most transportable lightweight mobility scooters on the market.
Outdoor mobility scooters – these scooters are a great option for travelling outdoors as they can be driven for up to 35km per charge. The Pride Pathrider 140XL is both easy to drive and powerful. One of the most popular 4 wheel electric scooters available at Friendly Society Pharmacy, the Pathrider features full suspension, pneumatic tyres and a hydraulic sealed brake system. Standard luxury touches make it comfortable for short or longer distances.
Large mobility scooters – these mobility scooters offer extra comfort and drivability and feature 4-wheel suspension. They are designed to handle rougher terrain.
Like road rules and motor vehicle registrations, the laws around mobility scooters and wheelchairs differ from state to state. Check out our article, Motorised wheelchair and mobility scooter rules in Queensland for details about how the laws work and scooter registration.

Wheelie Walkers and Rollators
Wheelie walkers, rollators or walking frames (also known as zimmer frames) are standing walking aids that are ideal if you need some support to get around. Essentially a walking frame with wheels, a mobility walker is moved by pushing your arms forward on the handlebars. The four wheels make wheelie walkers and rollators easy to move and very stable.
The majority of 4-wheel walkers have handbrakes for added safety. These differ from model to model but can include loop-locks brakes, bicycle-style brakes or pushdown brakes connected to the handlebars.
Many wheelie walkers have a seat, which makes them ideal for getting out and about in the community, and storage for personal items or shopping depending on the model.
Friendly Society Pharmacy has a range of rollators and walking frames in different sizes, weights and heights. Each has a folding mechanism that makes it easier to transport and store. Some models include a backrest and bonus walking cane holder. We also sell Carbon Fibre walkers.
Walking frames, canes and crutches
Friendly Society Pharmacy also has a range of other walking and mobility aids including folding walking frames, crutches, walking sticks and folding walking sticks and crutches.
