Rhyl Shopmobility, a charitable business, hired out and sold mobility scooters and wheelchairs so disabled shoppers could get around town. The snapshot above was taken in 2009 on the premises by Yours Truly catching proprietor Mark Webster in happy frame of mind.
Since then Shopmobility experienced financial problems and Mark's wife Coral who ran the project with him, passed away in tragic circumstances. Reluctantly, Mark let go to a new owner who continued the same line of business with Mark helping out occasionally.

At a time when some companies are abandoning Rhyl it is good to see this one coming on our side. You can get further info via this link:
