How to buy a suspension walker in the UK, or Spain

HI, a friend of mine, whose spine is deteriorating, needs a suspension walker so she can just move to the toilet etc, hanging from a chest harness and freeing pressure on the lower spine. Is there anywhere in the UK I can buy one and ship it to Spain, where she is locked down? The Spanish health Service is unable to help.
Any pointers most gratefully received.

Hi @Caroline1109
Hmm, it might be easier to try and get one shipped straight to Spain to save you having to send it from here. Have you had a look at websites like Amazon that offer international shipping? You can change your delivery address and see which items are available, or order from the Spanish version of the sites sometimes.
