Is it possible to hire a mobility scooter? The coach firm will not allow us to take our own.

I think you mean MeneN...
It has a lot of cobblestone roads. I don't think it's very easy to get around...
But public transport in Belgium is often equipped for people in weelchairs. Especially the trains. Is you call in advance, there will always be somebody to help you.
Here's the website of the city: http://www.menen.be/ (There is an english version)
Send an email to jozef.rosseel@menen.be . He's responsible for the facilities for people with a handicap in Menen. I think he will be able to answer all your questions.

No, is not like all over Belgium.
The pavements here in Belgium are terrible, full with holes and bumps and to high mostly.
I never heared here to hire a mobility scooter(there very expensive to buy).
Very bad company if your coach don't take a wheelchair, probably their insurance don't cover if any damage on the vehicle.

CHANTALDU , you are stupid .
We are proud of our country , and are roads are much better then they are in the US , I can tell you that , because I live here ( California ) .
I ones was asked ....." do they have freeways in Belgium ?" I almost smacked the man in the face .
What do some Americans think ? we ride Camels or something ?
And to answer your Question ...yes it is possible to hire a mobility scooter , go to City Hall and ask , they will tell you where to go .
Sorry , some people make me mad .
