Hi Folks

It's basically as per title, I'm looking for the UK website/contact details for the company but I cannot find any.

So if anyone can provide a link I would very appreciative or is it a case they only sell in the uk via dealers?

Any info would be greatly received.

Cheers

Thank you. When I did searches I notice Sumed coming up on a lot of them. So I will be in contact with them.

Cheers

Yes they will thankfully, and that is what Is how I will obtain it, after getting my Doctors referal however, the reason I need to contact them prior is so I don't end up wasting NHS time and money. I have problems due to the width and length, so getting in touch with the supplier first will allow my to find out my real options as regards 'special orders' (which the HA will pay for), due to dimenssion, before involving them.

I know it may sound stupid to some but, just because my HA will provide what I need (unless it's titanium), I'd rather do the "leg work" so to speak first, so that when I go to them we are at least "in the ball park" of what may suit. I did the same with my wheelchair and I know the system in Wales is different to England (as you can get vouchures) but, give praise where praiseis due, to OT who dealt with me over the wheelchair was top rate and if everyone was to get someone as understanding/helpful/informative and just so, I don't knowthe words but, willing to get things right for the people (and beleive me, I'm very perdantic, precise and know exactly what I want and how), then there would be NO complaints about the system. It took three atempts for Sunrise to build me a chair to suit, I went and collected the first one, tried it at home and it was way out and no good, the OT I was dealing with was away when the second one arrived, I got a call tosay it was there, the next call I expected was to collect it but, the OT had rejected it (I hadn't even seen it), knowing it was wrong.
