An aid for use when transporting elderly people and disabled people, comprising a frame provided with handle bars, said frame comprising a front (A) and a rear frame section (B), each essentially consisting of a pair of frame bars or frame tubes (1; 21) with transverse connections (a, b), said frame bars or frame tubes having their lower ends designed for movement across the ground and said frame sections (A, B) being foldably connected about a transverse axis that is located under handle bar level. The frame sections (A, B) are also foldable in the transverse direction, due to the transverse connections (a, b) between the frame tubes (1, 21) of the frame sections (A, B) being formed by connecting bars (a, b) which are adapted to be folded in or substantially in the plane of the respective frame section. The aid is adapted to be used both as a walking aid (rollator) and as a passive wheel chair.
