VAT RELIEF

VAT Exemption and VAT Relief are two phrases you may have heard a lot when looking at mobility products.

Most of our products have two prices - one with and one without VAT. VAT Relief is available on products specially designed for use by those with a long term medical condition or illness in a personal or domestic setting.

We hope that this guide will offer some explanation of who and when you can claim VAT Relief as well as the process of how to claim VAT Relief at the time of ordering online and in store.

Why Two Prices?

Most of the products on this website have two prices - this means that this product qualifies for VAT relief and can be purchased without paying the VAT.

This status is given to products which are specifically designed to be used to relieve the symptoms of a chronic illness or disability.

Where a single price is shown, the product does not qualify for VAT relief and the price includes VAT.

Am I Eligible?

Where two prices are shown for a product, the lower price (which excludes VAT) is available to those who are chronically sick, disabled or terminally ill. Chronically sick means that you have an illness that is likely to last a long time (such as arthritis, angina, etc). Disabled means substantially and permanently handicapped by illness or injury.

You do not have to be registered disabled to claim relief from VAT, but the nature of your illness or disablement must be specified in your declaration.

Unfortunately you do not qualify if you are elderly but able-bodied or if you are only temporarily disabled or injured.

How do I claim?

Claiming VAT relief is simple and quick. There are no assessments and you do not need to provide medical proof of any disability or condition. You simply need to fill in a quick form either online, in person or through the post.

Online

You will be asked whether you wish to claim relief from VAT during the checkout process. If you do wish to claim you will just need to state the illness or medical condition you are suffering from and tick to confirm that you wish to claim exemption and that the information you have provided is correct. It's that easy!

In Store

When buying an item in store it is just as easy to claim VAT relief as it is online. Our friendly staff will provide you with a simple form to fill out where you simply need to list your condition, name, address and provide a signature. It takes under a minute to fill out and can help save you a lot of money.

By Phone

If you would like to place your order by telephone and wish to claim VAT relief, we will have to charge you the VAT initially and then refund it to you once we have received a signed declaration. Once we receive your telephone order, we will send your goods to you along with a VAT declaration form for you to sign and send back to us using the Freepost address provided. Once we have received your signed declaration we will refund you the VAT difference to the same card you paid with.

We are required to retain a copy of your declaration and it may be passed to HM Customs & Excise as evidence of your eligibility. Your data is stored securely and will never be used for any marketing purposes or given to any 3rd parties. If you are in any doubt whether you qualify for VAT relief, please click here to email our customer services or call 01444 253 300. Alternatively, you may want to contact your local Customs & Excise office directly.

Details / Quickie Q50R Folding Powerchair

Fed up of clunky powerchairs that take up all the room? Say hello to the QUICKIE Q50 R. The premium, space-saving powerchair that folds easily in seconds to the size of a suitcase - ideal for storing neatly away until you get the urge for adventure!

And when you are ready to get out-and-about, the Q50 R packs a performance-punch to knock other folding powerchairs for six. From a dash around the shops to lengthy countryside exploring, go everywhere you want and more with a whopping 31 mile range, dual suspension and energy-efficient motors. Plus, the Q50 R is solidly built upon 40+ years of powerchair experience, so you can be confident that it’ll keep you safe.

There’s no troublesome mechanisms - just flip-up the clip at the back, fold the footplate and push the backrest downwards to fold the Q50 R straight to the floor. You don’t even need to remove the battery.

Get to grips with greater traction thanks to the large 12” drive wheels. These wheels are designed for real outdoor performance, providing better grip on multiple surfaces. Rear mudguards also help to keep you clean from water or grit flicking up whilst driving.

The Q50 R’s longer 1030 mm length provides a greater level of stability, so you can safely travel up gradients of up-to 10 degrees. For additional safety, rear anti-tips are also supplied as standard too.

The Q50 R’s durable aluminium frame uses oval tubing (as opposed to round). Stronger and less likely to flex, it reduces movement in the frame whilst travelling over uneven ground to provide a more comfortable ride.

Unlike a mobility scooter, the Q50 R has a small 1220 mm turning circle, making it ideal for indoor environments. Effortlessly turn in narrow hallways, kitchens and other restricted spaces without the need for complicated manoeuvres.
