Mobilising for mobility

In Jersey, Q3 has teamed up to support the Enable Jersey charity to provide voluntary collections and deliveries of mobility equipment.

Enable is a disability charity that supports islanders of all ages and all types of disability, with the aim of enabling people to “live a life without limits”.

Through the Enable Hub, the organisation helps people gain access to all kinds of specialist mobility equipment such as wheelchairs, profile beds, walkers, commodes and rollators, which they may not be able to afford.

Q3 supports Enable Jersey by providing the transport and the manpower to collect donations and bring them to the Enable Hub and then redistribute the items to their new owners around the island. The relationship grew from a discussion between Matthew Galvin, Operations Director of Q3 and Enable’s CEO Sean Pontin, who are close neighbours.

Matthew commented, “It’s great to be able to help Enable Jersey to reduce waste through this recycling programme and provide better access to equipment for people who desperately need it, and in an affordable way”.
