Hi i'm wondering if anyone can help. My little boy has just recieved his buggy from wheelchair services. The problem i'm finding is it is not supplied with any accessories e:g raincover. I have found a raincover that will fit but as the buggy has no hood for support the raincover just collapses. I have foun a place that can order the hood and sell it but it is going to cost

    Does your son get a lot of colds or chest infections? if so Wheelchair services should have provided the hood and raincover with the buggy, we got ours for this reason.
