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.

  • Very satisfied. It works really well!…

    We bought the Veloped for our son. He has problems with balance and endurance as he walks. And we all like to be out in nature. With his new aid, he is much more independent, and much safer on the road. It works really well!…

  • I have had my Trionic Veloped for two years now and I am very satisfied …

    It is easy to manoeuvre, stable holds a lot and looks cool.
    I have tried other walkers with puncture-free tires, but I get muscle pain in my arms from them.
    I do not get that with the air tires of the Veloped.

    The rollator works great in the w…

    During walks, the Veloped is my reliable partner. Especially now after switching to a friction brake with one-handed operation (like on a bicycle), I feel very safe even when going downhill. As a person with Parkinson's disease, up until now I could …
