Introduction
We are a family run business from the small market town of Whittlesey. Our idea was born when
we saw the stigma around mobility scooters, we want to try to bring a more modern feel that
would help not just the older generation feel independent but also the less mobile younger
generation feel comfortable and confident being out and about using a mobility scooter without
feeling any embarrassment or judgment. We want to help our local community while working
together to build a friendly, fun business that everyone can relate to and feel like one of our
BeeGBM family.
Seeing our parents growing old gracefully we have seen their mobility slowly decline over the
years but have also seen them struggle, due to not wanting to use aids such as mobility scooters
due to the stigma and also them not wanting to feel like the need it and wanting the independence
they have always had. This is when we had the idea of breaking that stigma and starting our
business based on style and excitement. We want the older generation to feel as excited about
buying their first mobility scooter as they would their first motor bike.
.
If you are looking to improve you quality of life and get back a bit more independence our
stylish, reliable and robust mobility scooters are for you.
None of our scooters require a driving licence so there is no need to rush out and take a driving
test!! And with them being electric powered they are environmentally friendly, also meaning
there is no road tax to pay either.
But if you wish to take your scooter on the roads you will need to register it with the DVLA.
All of our mobility scooters come with 2 remote fobs and 2 keys as standard.
All of our mobility scooters and e-scooters come with a FREE WARRANTY.
