Hi I have a bath aid which was supplied through my occupational therapist. Contact your local adult social services and ask for an assessmentHere to help with my experience in hunan resources and employment rights

Or as alternative you can purchase one yourself just search onlineHere to help with my experience in hunan resources and employment rights

Hi @jackie59 and a warm welcome to the community! You can request a needs assessment online and an OT will come and assessor your needs. They will then be able to provide you with the equipment you need.

Have you tried the DLF? They provide a range of aids and equipment. This is their site http://www.dlf.org.uk. Lots of information and help. When I was searching for aids, I found it a really good resource.jackie59 said:Ok thanks very much
Alternatively you can see if a OT can help you. This is a online directory of occupational therapists in Britain across all regions https://rcotss-ip.org.uk/find
Use the search tool.
