Life in Ely: Supporting Independence at Home and in Our Community

Ely isn’t just where we’re based it’s at the heart of everything we do.

At Fen Mobility Centre, we’re proud to be part of a close-knit, supportive community. Every day, our team is out across Ely and the surrounding villages, visiting customers, offering advice, and helping people stay independent in the place they love most: their own home.

A Local Team That’s Always on the Move

While our showroom just outside Ely is packed with one of the best and most comprehensive ranges of mobility products in the region, a big part of our work happens beyond our doors.

We spend much of our time:

• Visiting customers in their homes

• Delivering and setting up equipment

• Carrying out assessments

• Supporting families with practical advice

We know that mobility challenges don’t happen in a showroom, they happen in real life.

That’s why we bring our expertise directly to you.

Why Being Based in Ely Matters

Being local isn’t just convenient, it shapes how we care.

We understand Ely’s:

• Homes (from modern builds to period properties)

• Rural surroundings and villages

• Community values and support networks

Because we’re nearby, we can offer:

• Fast home visits

• Ongoing support when you need it

• A familiar, friendly team you’ll see again and again

We’re not a national chain & we are not an online seller, we’re part of the Ely community, and that means we genuinely care about the people we help.

Real Support, When It Matters Most

For us, support isn’t just something we talk about, it’s something we do every day.

Recently, one of our customers was out shopping in Ely when her mobility scooter, which she’d owned for over three years, suddenly developed a fault and stopped working.

Situations like that can be stressful and isolating. But because we’re local, we were able to act quickly.

Within half an hour, our team was with her. We made sure she was safe, gave her a lift home, and brought her scooter back to our workshop for repair.

For us, that’s just part of the job - but for our customers, it can make all the difference.

Expert Support from an Occupational Therapist

One of the things that sets us apart is our in-house occupational therapy expertise.

Our Occupational Therapist brings years of NHS experience and works closely with customers to:

• Support safe, independent living

• Recommend the right equipment for individual needs

• Help adapt home environments with confidence

This means you’re not just choosing from a great product range, you’re getting expert guidance to make sure it’s the right solution for you.

The NHS trusts us to service and repair their equipment.

Home Assessments That Make a Real Difference

Sometimes, the best solution isn’t obvious and that’s where we come in.

We offer:

• Home visits and personalised assessments

• Real-life demonstrations in your own space

• Honest, practical advice with no pressure

Seeing equipment in your home ensures it works for your lifestyle, whether it’s a mobility scooter, rise and recline chair, stairlift, or daily living aid.

The Best Range, Backed by Real Expertise

We’re proud to offer one of the widest selections of mobility and independent living products in the area, including:

• Mobility scooters

• Rise and recline chairs

• Stairlifts and access solutions

• Daily living aids

• Walking aids and wheelchairs

• Electric Adjustable Beds

  
  

But having the best range is only part of the story.

What really matters is helping you choose the right product and supporting you long after you’ve taken it home.

More Than a Showroom

Our Ely-based centre is more than just a place to browse, it’s a hub for advice, reassurance and support.

With over 30 years of experience, we provide:

• Try-before-you-buy options

• Friendly, no-pressure guidance

• Servicing, repairs and aftercare

• Ongoing support from a local team

  
  

Supporting Independence Across Ely and Beyond

From Ely to surrounding villages and across Cambridgeshire, we’re proud to support people in maintaining their independence.

Whether it’s helping someone get out and about again, or making day-to-day life easier at home, we see first-hand the difference the right support can make.

And that’s why we do what we do.
