I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this and I apologise in advance if it is not.Hopefully, I would get help with sending my question to the appropriate quarters. My family only recently moved to Chatham, Kent, still struggling to settle in and getting used to the UK generally. I want to know if there are places where we can get free preloved adaptive equipments to support our son during bathing and feeding times. Thank you

Hi @Tiwany
It is good to meet you and welcome.
Have you contacted Kent County Council they will assess your son and help you get the equipment he may need. Your family doctor can help with this too.
