Giving You The Freedom to do what YOU want to do, WHEN you want to do it
Central Shopmobility has 2 fixed bases:
- Falkirk – 7 Bank Street, Falkirk, FK1 1NB
- Stirling Bus Station.
In simple terms we provide a loan or hire of scooters, powered chairs and manual wheelchairs that make getting around the shops very easy. Membership is available to anyone who has a temporary or permanent physical impairment that presents difficulties in getting around the shops.
When you join our staff will help you choose a suitable scooter, power chair or manual chair to allow you the freedom to shop in Falkirk and Stirling town centres.
Our offices are located conveniently near the main bus routes and Dial-a-Journey operates a transport service for people who have mobility problems who cannot use conventional public transport that will take you directly to any of our Shopmobility sites. We would encourage you to use this service if you are eligible.
To enquire about membership and the services outlined here, please call: Falkirk 01324 630500 or Stirling 01786 449606

FAQ’s – Your Guide to Dial-a-Journey
Customers and visitors of any age with either a temporary or permanent mobility problem can use our service. We are very aware that not all mobility problems are immediately apparent.
Our staff will ask you to complete a simple registration form and then assess and train you on your ability to safely operate a scooter, power chair or manual wheelchair. We won’t allow you to leave the premises with equipment until you feel competent and comfortable using it.
You will be given a welcome pack containing additional safety instructions and information we think you need and a registration card when you next use our service.
Equipment will be loaned on a first come, first served basis unless you have booked in advance. Dial-a-Journey operates a door-to-door service and will escort customers to and from the vehicle. Car parking spaces are available and there is a taxi pick up/drop off area outside our offices.
Manual wheelchairs can be hired for holidays/day trips etc, and we may be able to deliver to you for a small charge.
