    Hi @Didavies47 and a warm welcome to our online community, how are you keeping?

    I'm sorry your health isn't great right now, and something to help you mobilise will hopefully make life a bit easier for you. A few things to consider are getting either an Occupational Therapy assessment or Needs assessment so someone qualified can come out, visit you and look at what support measures - other than, and including a walker - could be provided. 

    Whilst, I've amended the title of your thread to show your question and moved it to our Aids and adaptations category so our members who use walkers can offer their advice too. 

    Take care and keep safe in this sunshine.
