Mobility Advice Line (MAL for short) started life in 1993 at the home of Andy Whyment. Andy was an ex-policeman. He became a wheelchair user and found it quite difficult to gather information on all aspects of motoring, access, adaptations etc, so he decided to set up MAL.Andy sadly passed away in 1996. The beginning of 1998 a full time worker (also a wheelchair user) started working here, however he found it very difficult in travelling to Selly Oak, so unfortunately he had to leave us. We were then taken on board by another wheelchair user, who was already running another charity, and MAL survived again for a while until recently when it was found to be too much work running two charities.In August 2005 Mobility Advice Line survived again when Brynn Tudor accepted the offer to take over. Brynn has been involved in charity work for many years . MAL celebrate its next milestone of 20 years. (June 2008 being our fifteenth Anniversary).Mobility Advice Line is committed to providing help to Disabled people, their families, carers and friends.
