## From the administrators' statement

The business started trading in 1983 and was incorporated on 18 November 1987. Its main activities consisted of assembly, repairing and selling wheelchairs and other mobility aids for individuals with limited mobility.

The Company was sold ‘during 2019 to the current owners, with the original owner and founder sadly passing away.a year later.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic the Company had experienced a period of difficult trading.

Although there were interested parties, no offers were made to purchase the business on a going concern basis, whilst only a single offer was received to purchase certain assets on a breakup basis.
