Remember that time you stayed in an accessible property that had a step to get in? and a plastic door frame that tripped you up! So you had to put your portable ramps in place and do a wheelie "jump" into house. "Seahorses" has an accessible front entrance with a wheelchair ramp.
Oh and that accessible shower that had a shower door in the way and a big shower tray lip so you had to dump a piles of towels on the floor and wash in the "shower entrance"? "Seahorses" has an accessible wet room with wheel in shower.
And there was that time where you couldn't get the hoist under the bed because it had drawers underneath. How you solved that one probably shouldn't be discussed. At "Seahorses", our mobile hoist can get you into any bed - including the profile one!
