A NEW fleet of wheelchairs has been brought in at Ryedale’s tourist information centres thanks to customers who use the service.

People visiting the centres in Malton and Pickering who use their wheelchair-loan service often make a donation to the fund for servicing and replacing the chairs, and the money they have left over the last two years has also paid for a new bench and financial support for Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

The wheelchairs can be booked in advance by phoning the Malton centre on 01653 600048 or the Pickering centre on 01751 473791.
