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.

Product Reviews    

  • My veloped is a beautiful peice of engineering that liberated my legs.…

    The Veloped enables me to walk without thinking about it despite my disability. I go over rough ground, up kerbs and in and out of shops with ease. The company was efficient, helpful, and friendly to deal with. The product is so beautifully designed …

  • Enthusiasm on 3... 4 wheels ;-)…

    I am also an enthusiastic user of Veloped Sport.
    Due to cancer, I had to rely on a mobility aid very early on. I also got a dog for mental and physical support. For both of us to be able to walk not only in the village but above all in nature, it w…

  • Still grinnin' from ear to ear.…

    It has been nearly nine months since I bought my Trionic Veloped, and it is still the best investment that I have ever made. Even though I can only walk short distances (Herniated disc at L4/L5, and osteoarthritis my in hips, as well as suffering fro…

  • Great piece,…

    It's great to handle, but I should have measured the boot of my car beforehand, well, folding down the rear seats works too. Have I been travelling a lot? Unfortunately not, family matters on the one hand, staying in hospital on the other, etc. Next …

  • Excellent bit of kit…

    Excellent. From my previous average 20m range, the world has now expanded so much that I was able to take my youngest round the dinosaur museum (him sitting on the seat, facing forward, when he got tired).

    I really cannot thank you enough.…

  • A great product!…

    My Veloped was delivered very quickly, exactly as fast as advertised. Everything else is as well just as described. My multiple sclerosis limits my ability to walk, but my Veloped allows me to walk almost anywhere again. High sidewalks in the city or…

  • I can walk again…

    Due to the severe deterioration of my spine, I was no longer able to walk more than 100 meters or so. By chance I came across Trionic. The description convinced me and so I bought the product. After the fast delivery I was thrilled about my first "tr…

  • I am very satisfied…

    I am very satisfied; the rollator is exactly how it should be. Perfect to handle.…

  • Essential for urban hiking…

    So much easier to use than the 12 er. The fact that it can climb most curbs in Boston is nothing short of genius! The 14 inch wheels make on and off-roading such a breeze and a very smooth ride throughout! I go about 7 miles a day on my Veloped, and …
