Re purposing of Disability/Mobility Equipment
Well-Able is a not-for-profit disability information centre at 110 Rimu Road, Paraparaumu. We are a charitable trust providing free and impartial disability and mobility information for all Kapiti residents.
Many older or disabled people within our Kapiti community struggle to be able to afford the mobility or disability equipment they need to get around.
Well-Able are looking for mobility/disability equipment in good condition that people within our community no longer need and who would be happy to donate for free for Kapiti residents who are in need. All equipment will be donated, free of charge, locally within Kapiti.
Strollers/walkers, wheelchairs, walking sticks, shower stools etc.
if you have anything that you are happy to donate please don't drop off to the Centre but email Sarah at sarah@diec.org.nz or call 04 298 2914 for more information.
Thank you in advance, Sarah (Manager Well-Able)
