The link that Raphy (atalante83) posted to the French M3W forum is a helpful thread on raising the seat. In French but quite a few pictures to give you some ideas.
Out yesterday for a coffee with my 88 year old mother in law. She needed help getting in and out but insisted on taking the long route home. She's a game old bird.
A great shot - good on her.
My MIL loved my Plus8 at a similar age sadly she can't get in or out now.
