Coronavirus and mobility aid

Hi
I'm wondering if anyone has any advice about keeping the handles of mobility devices virus free? Whilst we're all scrubbing our hands every 30 seconds, presumably as soon as soon as we hold our crutch, walker or wheelchair, any virus lurking on the surfaces will be transferred to our hands. Is a wipe with a sanitizer, when you can find any, effective, or would a bit of a scrub with soap and water work? I'd be interested in what other people think.

Thank you for sharing with us
Ideally, something that kills viruses such as Dettol spray would be best.

Just wanted to share with you the NHS health information and advice on COVID-19 and the government response to coronavirus on GOV.UK.
