Parkinson's UK
Parkinson’s is the fastest growing neurological condition in the UK. It devastates lives and there’s no cure. Yet.
As a proud partner, we’re supporting Parkinson’s UK’s ‘Time for Can’ campaign to fund research and clinical trials needed to find a cure.
As a Parkinson’s UK member, you are also entitled to an exclusive price of £1,500 for a new Zest. As well as a saving of £395, the offer includes two years’ servicing and a two-year warranty. Together, our aim is to ensure Parkinson’s UK members maintain a sense of independence with a high-quality mobility solution.
As an extra thank you, we will also make a donation to Parkinson’s UK for every scooter purchased. Now is the time for ‘can’.
