About Oak Tree Mobility
Our Mission
Here at Oak Tree Mobility, we believe that everyone should be free to live a rich and fulfilling life. This belief affects everything that we do and is reflected in our range of handmade rise and recline chairs, adjustable beds and bath lifts, which have already empowered thousands nationwide to enjoy the independence they deserve.
Our Story
Oak Tree Mobility was founded back in 2008 when directors Ricky Towler and Tom Powell set out to create a mobility business that did things differently.
Frustrated by their experiences in the mobility sector, Ricky and Tom established Oak Tree as a reaction against the poor customer service and tired-looking products that seemed to come as standard.
From day one, we have been all about you, the customer. At Oak Tree, we know that our products change people's lives, and it is this that drives us forward. We are on a mission to help as many people as we can, and never losing sight of this allows us to focus on doing what we do best: bring you top quality craftsmanship and excellent service, all at an affordable price.
It is clear that our customers share our passion, and over time, we have become known throughout the UK for our fantastic prices, unparalleled quality, and first-class service. We love what we do, and we're confident this will shine through from the moment you pick up the phone and give us call.
"Your Comfort is Our Strength"
From the outset, we wanted our customers to know that were are a truly British company. After careful consideration, we chose the name Oak Tree and the phrase 'Your Comfort is Our Strength' for everything they represent: tradition, support, reliability, and Britishness.
