Electric Mobility scooters at Horse Guards Parade 2025
The British Limbless Ex-Servicemen’s Association (Blesma) veterans used Rascal 388XL mobility scooters to navigate the route.

In a poignant and historic display of respect and resilience, on Sunday 9 November 2025 at the Cenotaph, the Blesma Veterans were on parade with their families to honour their fallen comrades.

This year’s event highlighted both the sacrifices of our servicemen and women and the ongoing determination of those who have served, showcasing the strength of the veteran community and their commitment to one another.

Organised by The Royal British Legion, the British Limbless Ex-Servicemen’s Association (Blesma) veterans of all ages, many of whom have experienced life-changing injuries, used Rascal 388XL mobility scooters from Electric Mobility to navigate the route.

According to Electric Mobility, the scooters are not only tools of independence for many of the participants, but they also symbolise the enduring spirit of those who have given so much in service to their country.

“The mobility scooters allow veterans to take part in the parade, proudly standing shoulder to shoulder as they pay tribute to their fellow servicemen and women.

“This event represents their ongoing resilience and the support of the wider community ensuring that their voices and stories are not overlooked.”

Elaine continues, “Our Rascal mobility scooters are designed to provide comfort, independence and dignity with this being the 22nd year we have provided the scooters for the veterans and we are very proud to support Blesma.”
