We are continuously exploring ways of developing this service further to enable us to widen the range of equipment for older people who have difficulty with daily living tasks and people with disabilities. This also includes equipment available for children and parents with disabilities (particularly for use with babies). We work closley with organisations such as REMAP, who adapt or create one-off items of equipment that cannot be provided for individuals in the commercial market.
