On turning the chair upside down, it appears some plastic looking parts have broken on the centre functioning part of the leg raising/lowering mechanism.
The pictures may or may not help. They show the broken bits and where they came from.
I am looking for someone who may be able to repair this for me. Sadly it is out of warranty for mechanism parts.
I have heart failure and its accompanying fluid problem as well as neuropathy and need to sit with my legs raised.
Please private message me with a contact number, if you think you may be able to help.
Many thanks Cecilie

From trekking through Nepal and enduring the cold in Antarctica to immersing themselves in Aboriginal culture in the Australian Outback, their epic retirement proves that age is no barrier to discovery. Just as Sir Edmund Hillary pushed the limits of exploration, residents of his namesake village continue to chart their own extraordinary journeys.

Hi there,
I am a nurse and I am looking for a cheap or free mens bike for a client of mine who is disabled. He still rides a bike and someone stole it from him recently. My client is a beneficiary and can't afford much. Ideally he needs a bike with wide tires (mountain bike) for stability.

I was inundated within minutes and had to reply to many enquiries. Obviously, there a great need for free bikes so if you've been meaning to get rid of your excess bikes, plenty of people want them. Probably easier to leave them in a bike rack with a *free" sign on them to save your time.
