So Glastonbury fans really are getting older! Gran proves she’s no stick in the mud!

If you think music festivals should remain the preserve of the young, look away now.

Undeterred by the mud, rain…and throngs of youngsters, this grey-haired Glastonbury fan pushed what appeared to be a walking frame through the crowds yesterday.

She and thousands more had descended upon the 900-acre site at Worthy Farm, in Somerset, which was churned up by a second morning of torrential rain.

Many were left queuing to buy wellies, umbrellas and waterproof ponchos, but as you might expect from the older generation, this lady looked well kitted out.

    I am very pleased with my Veloped walker. It is easy to walk with it in the woods and I am able now to walk places I could not walk before. Very happy with my purchase.

  • Works exactly how it was designed…

    I bought the rain cover not to protect the Veloped from getting wet, rather to keep debris that could collect on it inside the garage.…

  • Freedom machine…

    Bought for my mother who had cancer which was moving into the spine. She was never happy with anything but this machine was different. She called it her freedom machine and she went from not walking anywhere to walking to the local farm shop across g…

  • Very good choice for a disabled girl, almost 9 years old...!…

    We bought the Trionic Veloped to our daughter. She is nine years old this summer so Veloped is not really suited for her size yet. But, we still think it works very well in terrain and that was exactly what we were searching, for such a long time!

  • Trionic veloped is a brilliant design and helpful and informative……

    Excellent customer service and helpful advice given, brilliant delivery service and a wonderful quality Veloped.

    The Trionic Veloped has made walking my dogs on my local country footpaths a comfortable safe and pleasant experience.…
