Getting Around Just Got Easier, Thanks to BORP
Imagine if you could test-drive every decision in life before making a financial commitment. It would save you a tremendous amount of buyer's remorse if you could try out a trendy new haircut for just a weekend, see how a permanent tattoo actually looks before realizing the ink cannot be returned, or sample a bizarrely flavored snack before purchasing the giant family-sized box. The "try before you buy" concept is a comforting safety net that rarely applies to the situations where you need it most.
This becomes a particularly expensive hurdle when it comes to mobility devices. Investing hundreds or thousands of dollars in a new manual or electric wheelchair attachment, a power assist device, or an advanced navigation tool can feel like a massive gamble. Without the ability to test how a specific piece of equipment integrates with your current wheelchair, fits into your daily commute, or handles your neighborhood terrain, making a purchase is often a stressful leap of faith.
Fortunately, BORP Adaptive Sports and Recreation is bridging this gap with their new Adaptive Micromobility Program. This pilot initiative allows members to borrow a variety of manual and electric wheelchair attachments—such as SmartDrives, FreeWheels, and scooter attachments—completely free of charge for up to three weeks. To eliminate the typical obstacles, BORP staff provides full training, handles the device installation, and manages all maintenance during the loan period so you can confidently discover what fits your lifestyle.
So, hooray for the ability to try before you buy! While you may not get a return policy on a questionable tattoo or a bad haircut, this new program ensures that you don't have to guess when it comes to your independent movement. In this one vital area of life, you can finally move forward with confidence and feel sure of your purchase before spending a single dime.
