Octavius’ Day Out

Shop Mobility

We took Octavius over to go and visit Shop Mobility. Octavius had a lovely time hearing all about the different scooters and options available to people. Octavius with his 8 legs has an easy time getting around that others don’t have. He learned how having these scooters has helped bring people who would most likely stay home, come into town and do their shopping and go out for lunch with a friend. 

He enjoyed the warm space getting to sit in the comfy chair with a hot drink. Octavius found Shop Mobility easy to get to and had a good time getting to see the scooters. Octavius has said he will start recommending Shop Mobility for everyone he can!
