What support is available to help me keep independent?
If you have a disability and/or experience difficulty completing daily tasks, you have a couple of options:
Community Equipment Loan Service
The service provides a range of equipment to help you live independently. This is funded by your local Council and NHS, where Medequip provides the equipment on loan and includes delivery and fitting, servicing, collection and recycling.
You may be eligible for specific equipment following an assessment, where health or social care prescribers, such as an Occupational Therapist, can work with you to find ways of managing tasks and offer advice and potential solutions.
To access equipment and request an assessment, you can ask your GP for a referral, or if you are to be discharged from hospital, an assessment can be arranged.
To enquire or request an assessment directly, you can contact your Council's Social Care Team:
Returning Equipment
If you have already benefited from equipment loaned to you that you no longer need, you can request a free collection so we can recycle and help others in need. Contact us on 01482 249057 or email ERY-HullCommunityEquipment@medequip-uk.com.
Equipment with a Medequip label can be returned directly to any of the drop off points on the following map.
Please click on a marker for details. For a list of returnable equipment, view the Equipment Amnesty Flyer.
