Hi I have a bath aid which was supplied through my occupational therapist. Contact your local adult social services and ask for an assessment

Or as alternative you can purchase one yourself just search online

Ok thanks very much

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.

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.
