Those motorised wheelchair/scooters?

something like THIS

its for my dad, he is semi disabled but refses to apply for DLA so doesn't get mobility.
we are meant to be going away in spetember and we are all worried about how he is going to get around..he can only walk a matter of feet before he has to sit down.

we thought that we could possibly hire one of those scooters but i have tried all over the place but cant find anywhere....so figuerd i would ask the wise old birds here.

Did a google search and came up with these people:-

I hope this helps, my MIL gets around on a scooter currently and for her its a lifeline.
