2 items for sale. If interested, ring Gillian R 07740626804

1. sturdy walker indoor/outdoor walker for sale. As new £50. See on amazon with video showing  folding technique. 

NRS Healthcare M66739 Compact Easy Rollator Wheeled Walking Aid – FOLDABLEamazon.co.uk

2. Trionic Veloped –With spare set pneumatic tyres. see trionic.uk 

Trionic Veloped – the only truly off-road capable Rollator

(New £1000.) Barely used. Available for £400, with extra set pneumatic tyres.

the Swedish Veloped is state-of-the-art when it comes to support for walking, hiking and running. The Veloped is 20 cm longer and 3 cm wider than our Trionic Walker. With its patented climbing wheel, the Veloped can negotiate even tougher terrain as the three-wheel design is more off-road capable than any 4 wheel walker.

The Trionic Veloped offers you premium quality and ensures excellent control when you decide to leave footpaths, roads, gravel and grass to walk on more bumpy ‘off-road’ surfaces. The Veloped is longer and wider than our outdoor Walkers and has a front climbing wheel so that you can navigate more difficult terrain.

All Trionic Veloped models have the same performance and functionality in terms of the frame, climbing wheel, all-terrain braking system, hand grip bar, seat and basket. The differences are in the textile colours and accessories. For example, the Veloped Sport is the lightest model and the Veloped Tour has a larger, more comfortable seat and includes a rain cover. The Veloped Trek has the same seat as the Sport but includes a seat bag and a backpack.

Well ladies and gentlemen that is it for Wakes 2026 and what a week we have had. We have had everything from Carnival processions, Toboggan, treasure hunts, races, sheep shearing, fun and games, strong man and not forgetting Karaoke – who knew we were such a talented village 😜. I’m exhausted but smiling just thinking about them all.

Wakes would not be possible without the help and support from so many volunteers, the fair and their brilliant offer this year, the Carnival and Recreation Committee, the Oddfellows, Kirsty, Jane,Tom and the Sycamore Team and everyone at the Legion and many more unsung heroes such as Roger and Roy.

So from me to you and our special little village we call home thank you. It’s time for a rest now but we will be back in 2027.

We have some well loved furniture free to a good home. Great opportunity for an upcycle if anyone loves a project.

All of the  three coffee tables are pine (one is painted).

The roll top desk comes apart for easy transport. It too needs a bit of TLC on the finish but otherwise absolutely fine.

Otherwise off to the charity shop, but thought I’d offer it here first.

All the best,
