The A08L Freedom Chair is a top-tier folding electric wheelchair, perfect for individuals seeking comfort, power, and versatility. Its foldable, compact design is paired with robust features, making it an ideal choice for both everyday use and more challenging terrains.
Lightweight and Portable Design
Weighing just 23.5kg, the A08L is lightweight and folds down to an ultra-compact size of 25.2” (L) x 29” (W) x 13” (H), making it easy to transport and store in the boot of a car. Despite its compact design, it remains sturdy and capable of tackling rougher terrains with ease.
Powerful Performance
Equipped with two 300W brushless motors and 12” rear PU tyres, the A08L handles cobbled streets, drop kerbs, and uneven surfaces effortlessly. With a top speed of 6mph and a driving range of up to 27 miles using three optional batteries, this wheelchair is perfect for both short trips and extended journeys.
Enhanced Comfort and Safety
Designed with user comfort and safety in mind, the A08L features a padded 17” wide x 17” deep seat with a 3-inch cushion, and the space between armrests measures 19 inches. The extendable lap belt ensures additional security, while the spring suspension system absorbs shocks for a smoother ride.
Advanced Control Options
The joystick can be mounted on either armrest, making it suitable for both left- and right-handed users. It also offers attendant control for caregivers. The electromagnetic brakes activate automatically when the joystick is in the neutral position, preventing accidental rolling.

How do I Claim VAT Exemption on my Order?
To show that you’re entitled to buy the goods VAT free, we will ask you to complete a simple declaration at the checkout stating the eligibility or the user of the items. This data is confidential and secure.
Once you have selected which products to purchase, simply proceed to checkout as normal.
At the bottom of the checkout page you will find the form shown below – once completed the VAT will be automatically removed from your order.
If you experience any problems or merely wish us to assist with this process and complete the order, please phone us on 0800 7703870 and we will be delighted to help.
Who is eligible for VAT Relief / Exemption
You do not need to be registered disabled or eligible for any other benefit to qualify for VAT free goods.
You are eligible if either yourself, or the person you are purchasing the goods for are chronically sick or have a disabling condition, and the goods are for personal / domestic use only.
Charities are also exempt from paying VAT, and can do so by simply completing the form in the same manner and entering their charity number. This number will be quickly verified by us before dispatch of your order
Who is not eligible for VAT Relief / Exemption
If the person the goods are intended for does not have a specific long-term medical condition, by law they must purchase their goods without applying for VAT exemption. If you have a short-term injury, or simply use the term ‘old age’, this would not make you eligible, so please be specific when entering the disability criteria.
Any organization that does not have a registered charity number (such as businesses) are also not exempt from paying VAT.
Please refer to the Gov.UK HMRC website if you would like further information on VAT Relief.
