The William Merritt Disabled Living Centre is a registered charity and since 1982 has offered impartial and professional advice for children and adults living with a disability or long-term condition. The Centre carries out assessments for members of the public to help them choose and use daily living aids with confidence and enhance their independence. All assessments are impartial and we offer advice on equipment and where to buy it. We do not sell any equipment at the main Centre. We welcome referrals from healthcare and other professionals. We are proud to be an accredited member of Driving Mobility offering a variety of assessments for drivers and passengers as well as adapted-vehicle driving lessons.
